Saint Crispina was a martyr who suffered during the Diocletian

persecution. At the time of the persecution she was brought before the
proconsul; on being ordered to sacrifice to the gods she declared she
honoured only one God.
Her head was shaved at the command of the judge, and she was exposed
to public mockery, but she remained steadfast in the Faith. She was
then condemned to death and beheaded.
