“SADOTH, as he is called by the Greeks and Latins, is named in the original Persian language, Schiadustes, which signifies “friend of the king,” from schiah, king, and dust, friend. His unspotted purity of heart, his ardent zeal, and the practice of all Christian virtues, prepared him, from his youth, for the episcopal dignity, and the crown of martyrdom.” (http://www.bartleby.com/210/2/202.html)
