Cantiga 049 of the Cantigas de Santa Maria of Alfonso X

The Lost Pilgrims who were Led to Soissons
Some pilgrims got lost in the mountains and darkness overtook them.

Fearing thieves, they prayed to the Virgin.

The pilgrims also asked forgiveness for their sins.

They saw a bright light and, within it, a beautiful woman holding a sceptre.

The maiden, surrounded by light, made the mountains glow.

She then led the pilgrims to Soissons.
