The holy Martyr Patience.
Nothing is known about Saint Patience except that she was a Martyr. According to Eustratiades, she is unknown by both the printed Menaia and the Synaxarion of Saint Nicodemus; only a Codex preserved at the Monastery of Vatopedi commemorates her, together with a service in her honor by Saint Theophanes the Branded. Patience is the translation of her name in Greek, which is variously transliterated as Hypomona, Ypomoni, and so forth.
