Relics, at Einsiedeln, where, in 1861, the thousandth anniversary of the Saint's death was celebrated with great pomp.
FOOTNOTES:
[100] This account is a translation of the Acts; it is a very fair specimen of the original documents as written by the Church notaries at the time. The style being too simple to please the taste of later ages, too many of them were re-written in florid diction, and long speeches were put in the martyrs' mouths.
[101] One reading is insolutus, another in soleis.
[102] That is, to intercede for him when he, the martyr, stood in the presence of Christ in Paradise.
[103] That is, extending their arms, so that they formed the symbol of the Cross.
[104] Slightly abbreviated from the Acts.
[105] Aurelian was a special votary of the sun.
[106] There is some blunder here.
[107] S. Hieron, Ep. 6.
