Saint Lucy was a rich young Christian martyr who is venerated as a saint by Catholic and Orthodox Christians. Her
feast
day in the West is December 13, by the unreformed Julian calendar the longest night of the year; she is the patron
saint
of those who are blind. Lucy is one of the very few saints celebrated by the Lutheran Swedes, Finland-Swedes, Danes,
and
Norwegians, in celebrations that retain many indigenous Germanic pagan pre-Christian midwinter light festivals. She
is
one of seven women, excluding the Blessed Virgin Mary, commemorated by name in the Roman Canon.
Her acta sanctus tells that Lucy was a Christian while Diocletian was persecuting and martyring Christians. She
consecrated her virginity to God, refused to marry a pagan, and had her dowry distributed to the poor. Her would-be
husband denounced her as a Christian to the governor of Syracuse. Miraculously unable to move her or burn her, the
guards stabbed her and killed her.
The oldest record of her story comes from the fifth-century accounts of saints' lives. By the sixth century, her
story
was widespread. St. Aldhelm wrote an account of her life, and the Venerable Bede included her story in his
Martyrology.
[4] In medieval accounts, St. Lucy's eyes are gouged out prior to her execution. In art, her eyes sometimes appear on
a
plate that she's holding.
