    Saint Valentine lived in Rome during the third century and held secret marriages for young lovers against the wishes of Emperor Claudius. When Claudius discovered this, he had Valentine imprisoned. In prison, Valentine performed a miracle by restoring the sight of his jailer's daughter, who had been blind. This helped spread the story of Saint Valentine and his legacy as the protector of love on the holiday now known as Valentine's Day.
