Saint ALBAN, protomartyr de Grande-Bretagne, martyr à Verulianum (aujourd'hui St Alban's) sous Dioclétien (287 ou 303). (Office composé en français par le père Denis Guillaume et publié au tome VI du Supplément aux Ménées.)
Troparion — Tone 4
In his struggle your holy martyr Alban, / Gained the crown of life, O Christ our God. / For strengthened by you and in purity of heart, / He spoke boldly before the judges of this world, / Offering up his head to you, the Judge of all!
