She lived with the noble lady Savina, whom she converted from paganism to Christianity. This happened during the reign of Emperor Hadrian. It was he who gave the order to persecute believers in Christ. Governor Beryl carried out this commission.

He learned about the holy virgin Seraphim and gave orders to bring her to trial. At the very first demand, she fearlessly appeared before the executioners, wishing to receive a martyr's crown from the Lord. She came accompanied by her mistress Savina. Seeing a noble lady, Beryl ordered to let the girl go. But after a while he changed his mind and again summoned Seraphim to trial.

He forced the virgin to offer sacrifices to the pagan gods, but she stood firm in faith in Christ. Then the ruler committed a terrible crime - he gave her up to be mocked by the youths.

The saint prayed to the Lord to protect her. At the same moment, a strong earthquake began, and the shameless fell in complete relaxation.

In the morning Beryl became aware of this miraculous incident. He ordered Seraphim to restore health to these young men. The saint again began to ask the Lord for mercy to these people. Then she ordered them to get up. As soon as they got up, they immediately told the judge that the Angel had covered Seraphim with himself, forbidding them to approach her.

But Beryl did not believe them and continued to persuade the saint to renounce Christ. But nothing could dissuade the Christian woman. Then they subjected her to cruel tortures: they beat her with sticks and burned them with burning candles. However, the wood chips from the stick, with which they beat Seraphima, hit the ruler in the eye, and he went blind. After which he ordered to behead the martyr. Her body was buried by her mistress Savina.

People have always noted that the name given to a person at birth partially determines his character. Scientists could not stay away for a long time, and now such sciences as onomastics and anthroponymics are engaged in solving this riddle - they study the origin and meaning of their own names.

These disciplines put forward hypotheses and theories that would explain the effect of a name on a person.

However, she should be careful: many of these gentlemen may turn out to be room tyrants who are simply looking for a domestic servant for themselves.

Seraphima will go well with a romantic, poetic young man. Her heart melts when someone talentedly praises her beauty, kindness and tenderness. An ambitious young man with revolutionary views, who dreams of rebuilding the world globally, will suit her. Seraphima will gladly share his views and complement them with her knowledge.

Table: compatibility with other names

Alexander	Alexander can hardly be called a suitable couple for Seraphima: this young man hovers in the clouds too often, which can annoy Seraphima, who regards such behavior as idleness and laziness.
Alexei	The young man will like Seraphima: he will attract her attention with a sincere attitude and an interesting life position. Strong friendship is possible, but a spark of love is unlikely to be ignited between this couple.
Andrei	Andrey will conquer Seraphima with his ability to beautifully describe everyday things, subtle artistic perception and sincere affection for a girl. If Seraphima can attract Andrey's attention, then a strong marriage or at least a long romantic relationship is possible.
Boris	Boris will certainly attract the attention of Seraphim - an unusual view of the world, an extraordinary taste and sociability will quickly appeal to the girl, but the novel is unlikely: Seraphim is unlikely to be able to interest a young man.
Vladislav	The gloom and severity of Vladislav will not please Seraphim, but with closer acquaintance, friendship is possible. A love relationship is unlikely.
Dmitry	Dmitry's sociability and external activity may at first alienate Seraphima, but if the girl gets used to the fact that a young man is always surrounded by a crowd of friends, then strong relationships are possible, developing into love and tender affection.

An idealist and faithful follower of the chosen idea, he will attract the attention of the Seraphim with his dedication and sacrifice, his willingness to give everything for the achievement of the cherished goal, be it peace on earth or the protection of nature. In turn, Eugene will charm the devotion and tenderness of Seraphima - he has dreamed of such a friend all his life.
Kirill	Cyril and Seraphima are not destined to converge: both are too closed to come up first. If they happen to be in the same company, none of them will dare to continue their acquaintance.
Sergei	Sergei's frivolity may alienate Seraphima, but if the young man is interested in her, then a short romance is possible. After the breakup, the couple will most likely remain good friends.

Yang	Jan may at first lure Seraphim with his beautiful appearance and words, but the girl will quickly see through his insincerity and break off the emerging relationship.
