Lucy was promised in marriage to a pagan but she refused as she stated she wished to remain a virgin for our Lord. The man renounced her to authorities and the emperor condemned her to a life of forced prostitution. When they attempted to take her to the emperor they were unable to lift her, even when they hitched her to oxen. The emperor ordered her killed. At first, they piled wood and straw around her and attempted to burn her alive. The fire went out. They next tore out her eyes and she was stabbed to death.
