Excerpt from Spello, Bevagna, Montefalco: Con 105 Illustrazioni
La qual persistenza del culto pagano fa supporre che il cristianesimo non v'at tecchisse molto presto; e gli Atti pavesi del martirio del suo primo vescovo e patrono s. Felice, che si vuole decapitato sotto Diocleziano e Massimiano, sono, a detta stessa dei Bollandisti, molto posteriori ai fatti narrati. La serie dei vescovi, in ogni modo, non è lunga; poichè la sede episcopale si abolì nel 1130, dopo che per discordie cittadine il vescovo Niccolò (iii) fu precipitato da una finestra.
