On the Martyrs of Derbend. 
a — 
It is recorded in books of history, that three hundred martyrs are buried round about 
Ghirkhlem, and that , besides these, seventy two other martyrs lie buried around it. Mo- 
reover, forty virgins, having fled from the pursuit of the enemy, concealed themselves 
in a cave, where they disappeared, and they are now thought to lie hid in the neigh- 
bourhood of the martyrs of the (same) Gkirkhler. God knows best!
