Pope Saint Peter I the Seal of Martyrs

From The Lives of the Saints #11

O, the saintly pope, you have offered yourself to martyrdom on behalf of your people of Alexandria, in front of Diocletian, the oppressor. Therefore, our father, we are indebted to your love for us and for your substantial care that was offered for the sheep.
