1716 VII| conceived. Then the holy man said to her: Lady, be thou
1717 VII| mind of that which the good man had told to her, and shewed
1718 VII| did to our Lord. This holy man is then as Moses was, which
1719 VII| crucifix tofore whom the holy man was turned and made his
1720 VII| signified that the holy man should depart out of this
1721 VII| well, for when the holy man was dead the star was no
1722 VII| through the town he saw a man that was fallen from high
1723 VII| the place where the holy man had cast the said ring into
1724 VII| water. And when the holy man advised him, and that well

1726 VII| and high. When the holy man saw this woman, he made
1727 VII| began to cry after the holy man and demanded meat and clothing.
1728 VII| Soon commanded the holy man that he should be led home,
1729 VII| answered the leper to the holy man: Alas, sir, nay, for I that
1730 VII| baptism, and anon the holy man baptized him, and incontinent

1737 VII| said: Rise thou from hence, man of God, to the end that
1738 VII| the city. Then the holy man answered: I will not depart,
1739 VII| prayers. And when the holy man had made his prayers they
1740 VII| two deeds doing, the good man rendered his soul to God,
1741 VII| the time that this holy man was on life, there was a

1749 VII| said to him: Go to yonder man and make him come secretly
1750 VII| before his presence, the holy man Pharon, full of virtuous
1751 VII| to be borne, to this holy man, and anon after that he
1752 VII| things it happed that a holy man named Killenus, born in
1753 VII| good renomee of the holy man Fiacre, he anon went towards

1756 VII| and insuring that the holy man Fiacre was full of wicked
1757 VII| forthwith towards the holy man, and with an evil presumption
1758 VII| come there.~When the holy man saw that he was thus accused
1759 VII| words came towards the holy man Fiacre, and when he saw
1760 VII| knew well that he was a man of great merit towards our
1761 VII| or raised from death the man, which by his sin was put
1762 VII| In the same battle was a man named Lineus, which because
1763 VII| devoutly reclaimed him. A man that was called Lemicius,

1771 VII| slit asunder. This holy man made his prayer, and anon
1772 VII| patiently and with great joy. A man he was of tranquillity,
1773 VII| would never accord with no man to dine with him. He had
1774 VII| gown and hood to a poor man. He held hospitality indifferently
