In this work by St. Ambrose, St. Sebastian, a revered Christian figure, supports the martyrs Marcellian and Marcus as they face execution for their faith. Despite emotional pleas from their parents and spouses, who lament their impending deaths, Sebastian urges them to resist the temptations of earthly attachments and embrace the promise of eternal life. He emphasizes the fleeting nature of worldly pleasures and the eternal joys awaiting martyrs in heaven. The narrative culminates in a miraculous event where Zoe, the wife of Nicostratus, regains her speech after witnessing Sebastian's divine presence, further solidifying the faith of those around him.
