Life
Holy Martyr Terentius is commemorated on 16 October (new style) together with the martyrs Leontius, Dometius and Domninus, who ended their lives in fire. The Greek synaxarion says that the four suffered by fire, and its verses picture Leontius in the midst of the blaze with his three companions in the struggle.
The sources consulted give no other details about the place and time of their suffering. The Church keeps their names and the memory of their confession unto death.
