Holy Martyr Hilarius is commemorated on 16 December (new style, the Greek calendar) together with Saint Probus. The synaxarion says that both received martyrdom by the sword. A verse puts a dialogue on their lips: Probus says that the flame is like green grass, and Hilarius answers: yes, dearest Probus.
