. Nothing is known of the twin martyrs; but the discovery of their bothes in 386, after a divine message to St Ambrose, and their enshrinement, with the attendant miracles, made a vivid episode in the struggle at Milan between the bishop and the Arian Empress Justina, mother of Valentinian II, the emperor here mentioned. This must explain the wide spread of their cult, and the popularity of Gervase (but not, apparently, of Protase) in church dedications and as a Christian name, especially in France. Gibbon tells the. story in the twenty-seventh chapter of
The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire
