List of Cantigas de Santa Maria
Cantigas de Santa Maria Main Page
A novice priest of Chartres was a gambler and a thief.
Whenever he saw an image of the Virgin he always prayed to it.
He died unconfessed.
He was not buried within the churchyard.
The Virgin appeared to a priest and chided him, telling him to bury the novice in hallowed ground.
The priests discovered that the novice had a flower like a lily growing out of his mouth.
