Cantiga 173 of the Cantigas de Santa Maria of Alfonso X

The Man who Passed a Kidney Stone
A man from Aragón suffered from kidney stones. He was in so much pain that he could not eat, sleep, or do anything but call on the Virgin.

He had consulted several doctors but they did not help him.

He went to Salas to pray to the Virgin. He asked her overlook his wrongdoings.

[lacuna]

He woke up and found in his bed a kidney stone as big as a chestnut.

He praised the Virgin.
