The holy Confessor Dunaleh (Daniel) of Spain

Saint Dunaleh (or Daniel) was originally the governor of an island in the Atlantic just off Cadiz, a seaport in southwestern Spain. He was born of wealthy and pious parents and raised with godliness in the doctrines of Christianity. Oppressed by the burden of this world, he left for Rome to venerate the tomb of Saints Peter and Paul, and was tonsured a monk by Pope Agapetus (Pope from 946 to 955). After this he went to Constantinople, where he was highly honored by Emperor Constantine Porphyrogenitus (911 to 959), and thence went to Jerusalem, where he received the Great and Angelic Schema with the new name of Stephen. Travelling thence into Egypt with two priests, Stephen was taken by the Moslems and languished in prison for six months, suffering hunger, thirst, and the other privations of imprisonment, until he was sent to the Amir of Egypt, who weighed him down with heavy chains and demanded that he deny Christ. Upon his refusal, he was punished with greater wounds and torments, until, spent with his sufferings for his steadfast confession of the truth, he gave up his soul into the hands of the Lord.
