Hermit Saints. S. Anthony.
FOOTNOTES:
[50] The narrative of S. Nilus is necessarily much condensed. I regret having to do this, as it is most touching in its entirety.
[51] A much fuller account of the travels of B. Ordorico than I am able to give here may be read in MacFarlane's "Romance of Travel," II. c. 1. The most correct version of these travels is that given by Bollandus, Jan. T. 1, pp. 920-986, which MacFarlane does not seem to have seen.
