The History of Saint Valentine

Saint Valentine was a Bishop who lived in the third century, in Rome. During his life time
the Rome Empire humbled down the taxes surrounding tribes. Claudius II ruler during the
chaos believed that marriage make soldiers weak. It issued an edict forbade our marriage to
ensure the quality of his soldiers. The ban on marriage was a great shock. The kind Bishop
noticed the injustice of the decree, he held the lord of the church and helped lovers who
came to him, united them in holy matrimony. but it was a matter of time before the emperor
heart about this friend of lovers and had him arrested.
Valentine was imprisoned. While waiting for his sentence, his jailor Asterius approached
him to use his saintly power, and heal his blind daughter. Valentine succeeded and her sight
was restored -- they became close and fell in love.
After a while, the Emperor asked Saint Valentine to agree with the emperor about the ban
on marriage, thus giving up his religion. Valentine refused.
Just before his execution, Valentine asked for a pen and paper and signed a farewell
message to his lover, "from your Valentine"; a phrase that lived ever after.
