(o) In the year 61 according to the vulgar com∣putation.] All Authors are agreed, that St. Paul was beheaded at Rome, but however they are not agreed about the year. Some of them tell us, that he suffered Martyrdom with St. Peter, others place it a year, and some two years, lower; some pretend, that this happened in the last year of Nero's Reign, which was the sixty eighth of our Blessed Saviour; but most Men think, that St. Peter and St. Paul suffered Mar∣tyrdom at the time of Nero's Persecution, which began in the fourth year of that Empe∣ror, after the burning of Rome, Anno Dom. 63. and therefore according to this account these two Princes of the Apostles suffered Martyrdom in the 64th year of the Vulgar Aera.
