No vislumbraba una estrella,
Silbaba lúgubre el viento,
Y allá en el aire, cual negras
Fantasmas, se dibujaban [25]
Las torres de las iglesias,
Y del gótico castillo
Las altísimas almenas,
Donde canta o reza acaso
Temeroso el centinela [30]
Todo en fin a media noche
Reposaba, y tumba era
De sus dormidos vivientes

sent on a mission into Gaul, was drowned in a bay of the sea, which is
called Amfleat,(138) and committed to a humble tomb by the
inhabitants

the place; but since it was the will of Almighty God to reveal his merits,
a light from Heaven was seen over his grave every night; till the

that was buried there, and inquiring who and whence he was, carried away
the body, and interred it in the church, in the city of Boulogne, with the
