B. 373. He was of respectable piv> reutage. His father Calpharniua was a deacon; and his mother Couchessa, a niece of St. Martin of Tours. The fn ture apostle of Ireland was called at his baptism “SuKcath,” signifying warlike, ] “fortis iu hello.” It was Pope Cellist ne that gave him the name of Patrieius. j Patrician was a title and a diguity among ! the ancient Homans, to which high priv- ; ileges were attached. According (o Di onysius of IfaUcariiassus some of the Kings of Prance were proud to bear the title of Roman patrician. At the age of sixteen he was captured on one of the expeditions of Nial “of the Nine Hostages,” then King of Ire land, who waa devoted to hostile forays against the Hritons and the Gauls. ’ Car ried intti 11-eland tie was sold as a slave to Milcho, a petty priuce or king ruling North Bahuaaida iu Ulster, who gave him the care of his flocks. He-spent six years in this slavery. Having learned the language and man ners of the country, Patrick effected his eseapo in the beginning of the seventh year of his captivity. He reached his native land after passing through many dangers, and remained with his parents some time, when he formed the resolu tion of returning and laboring for the conversion of the islanders. Ha went to Tours, Home ami other places to prepare himself fur the, work, and it was many years before lie reached Ireland. Palla dius having <*HM, tit. (fermifiti sent Pat rick to Home with letters.
