A.D. 594; or Patriarch of Constantinople, ob. A.D. 434. 13 I am unable to identify this saint. 14 Bishop, circ. A.D. 273. See the works "De Veneratione capitis S.V." and "Translatio capitis," etc., in A. S. Boll., 14 Feb., ii, p. 758. The head was given by Queen Emma, widow of King Cnut, in A.D. 1041, to New Minster, A. Š. Chron., ad an., Edwards' Liber de Hyda, pp. xxxvi, xxxvii. 15 There are several saints of this name. 16 King Æthelstan was a great collector of relics. William of Malmesbury says that at Middleton Abbey, Dorsetshire, the king "multas sanctorum reliquias ex Britannia transmarina emptas reposuit.' Gesta Pontif. (Rolls), p. 186. The same thing was done at Malmesbury Abbey, ib., p. 198. The Leofric Missal gives at pp. 3-5 a long list of relics (very similar to these) preserved in the Monastery of St. Mary and St. Peter, Exeter, " quarum maximam partem gloriosissimus et victoriosissimus rex Athelstanus, ejusdem scilicet loci primus constructor, illuc dedit." The new edition of Dugdale's Monasticon contains numerous entries of relics preserved in religious establishments, in the Index. 17 See p. 150, n. 12. 18 See Beda de Locis Sanctis, ii, where is given a detailed description of the Holy Sepulchre. Tobler, i, 148, gives a plan of it, to illustrate Arculfus, iii. 19 See p. 151, n. 13. 20 Antoninus Martyr de Locis Sanctis (Tobler, v) speaks of the "Domus Sancte Marie." . "Multa ibi sunt beneficia de vestimentis ejus." There are many other references to the clothes of the Virgin Mary in Tobler's collections. 21 See p. 5, n. 2; p. 160, n. 14. p.107.] mento sancti Johannis baptiste'. De uestimento domini2.

Lebreton, Biogr. Norm., i, 334. 6 See p.169 n. I. For ? Probably for Valentiniani. There are three saints of this name. St. Valention and other co-martyrs see A. S. Boll., May, vi, 23; vii, 849, etc. 8 St. Radegonde, daughter of Bertaire, King of Thuringia, and Queen of Clotaire I, King of Soissons, became a nun at Poitiers in A.D. 544, ob. 13 Aug., A.D. 587. The virgin of Catania, ob. 5 Feb., A.D. 251. Her relics were as famous as her miracles. Alban Butler, Lives of the Saints, vol. ii, p. 57, writes of her martyrdom: "Quintianus.. the governor. commanded her breasts to be tortured, and afterwards to be cut off. At which she made him this reproach: Cruel tyrant, do you not blush to torture this part of my body, you that sucked the breasts of a woman yourself ?'" St. Peter, in a vision, healed all her wounds. ut The opinion of a twelfth century Benedictine monk (William of Malmesbury) respecting the traffic in relics, such as are enumerated in the foregoing lists, is interesting:-"Sic enim Christianitas viluit sic cupiditas increvit Sanctorum corpora mercem fatiamus, felices exuvias venum proponentes.' Gesta Pontif. (Rolls), p. 419. 10 To this deed Astle has prefixed the foolish title "Carta Sunwalli Abbas." p.108.] pro omnibus benefactoribus huius loci.
