(ABOUT A.D. 460.)
[Greek Menologium. Authority:--Theodoret.]
Theodoret, after relating the virtues of S. Maro the hermit, (Feb.
14th) goes on to tell of a holy virgin, named Domnina, who lived in
a small shed, and attended prayers in the Church at cock-crow. She
was emaciated with continuous fasting; she neither looked at any one,
nor suffered her own face to be seen. Whenever she took the hand of
Theodoret, the bishop, to kiss it, he drew it away moistened with her
tears. She spent her time, when not engaged in prayer, in ministering
to the necessities of travellers.
