According to tradition, he went on to preach the Gospel in Asia Minor, where he found martyrdom.

The blind man asks the Lord to cure him of his physical blindness. He is granted his wish because his intellect is not blind to the Light of the World, but through his faith he is ready to acknowledge that Christ is true God and true man. Hear the mystery through the timeless notes of Gregorian chant at Vespers of Quingagesima in Lemon Grove.
