caption: San DELFINO, Sante TARSILIA and EMILIANA. Dolphin (mid-4th century - 24th December 401/403), bishop of Bordeaux, master and friend of St. Paulinus of Nola (355 - 431), in 380 he took part in the Council of Zaragoza to resolve the controversy of Priscillianus and his disciples. Tarsilia, a Roman religious who lived in the 6th century, was one of the three paternal aunts of Pope Gregory I the Great. A nun with her sisters Emiliana (or Amelia) and Gordiana, she lived while the plague of 560 was raging in Rome, working with pity and charity in the assistance of the poor and sick. According to the account of his nephew Pope Gregory, Tarsilia died shortly before the Christmas of an unspecified year; She would then appear to Emiliana, telling her: "I did Christmas without you, but come and celebrate Epiphany together", and the sister actually joined her on the following January 5th. Commemoration on December 24th. Colored engraving, Italy 1886
