St Marina the Martyr hammering a devil, from a Greek hagiography (1858). Margaret of Antioch is known as Marina the Martyr in the Eastern Church. From Wikipedia.
Almighty and everlasting God, who dost enkindle the flame of thy love in the hearts of thy saints: Grant to our minds the same faith and power of love: that , as we rejoice in their triumphs, we may profit by their examples; through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Amen.
¶ Or this:
O God, who didst endue blessed Margaret thy Virgin with grace to witness a good confession and to suffer gladly for thy name: Grant us, we beseech thee, so to follow her stedfastness that we may attain to the glorious fellowship of thy Saints; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
