Do you know the origin of the story?
Although uncertain and surrounded by mystery, the story of Valentine has its origin back in the third century in ancient Rome. Legend has it that Valentine was a generous doctor who became a priest and dedicated many years of his life to officiate a large number of weddings among young lovers. Such a noble and honorable cause, nevertheless, was a reason for imprisonment, because at that time the soldiers were forbidden to marry, and Valentines, with a candid and kind soul, had granted it in a clandestine manner. When the Emperor Claudius ||he found out what had happened, he ordered
Valentine executed. Legend has it that in the dungeon, Valentin became a great friend of the blind daughter of the jailer and that the day before his execution, on February 14, he miraculously managed to cure his blindness.
