День Святого Валентина – Saint Valentine`s Day
This day is called so thanks to St. Valentine, who was the priest, and he has been sentenced to the death penalty. In the 3-rd century AD the Roman emperor has published the law forbidding the marriages. The legend says that the priest Valentine disobeyed that law and secretly married the couples who love each other.
In a dungeon St. Valentine fell in love with a girl who was the prisoner`s daughter and they communicated by means of notes. Before the execution on the 14-th of February, the last note was sent and it was signed “from Valentine”. Valentine`s ashes have been buried in the church of St. Praksidis in Rome. The gate of the church has thename of “Valentine`s Gate”. Now this holiday is no more a deep religious one. In England this holiday is associated
With a secret delivery of the gifts to the beloved. The symbol of this day is the heart and traditionally the couples who love each other send notes in the form of the heart.
As it is
In cold February there is a lovely, warm holiday – Saint Valentine`s Day. I read about Saint Valentine and learnt why the 14th February is called as the Day of All Lovers.
I love this holiday a lot! I think that this day is very special and each pearson could meet miracle exactly on Saint Valentine`s Day. I also belive that the most wonderful miracle will happen with me because Valentina is my name!
В холодном феврале есть чудесный,
Я обожаю этот праздник! Думаю, что этот особенный день и каждого человека ждет чудо именно в День Святого Валентина. Я также верю, что самое прекрасное чудо произойдет со мной, потому что меня зовут Валентина.
