376 ST. HELENA STABULARIA Silverio Daglioli, a notary in Bologna, in Italy ; her mother's name was Fenthesila Bocoaferri. She married at seventeen, Benedict dall' Oglio, aged forty. They lived very happily for thirty years. The legend concerning her is that she was the daughter of the Emperor of the Turks, by a Christian mother of the family of Faleologus, and was related to the Marquis of Montferrat, to St. Catherinb of Alexandria, St. Petronins, bishop of Bologna, and the Yirgin Mary; that she was miraculouBly transported on the day of her birth to the house of her reputed parents at Bologna, while their child was taken to Constantinople, and placed in the cradle vacated by the infant saint. This &ble is supposed to have arisen from her parabolic way of saying, "I'm not an inhabitant but a pilgrim. This is not my country. These are not my relations." She was worshipped from the day of her death. She was buried in the chapel of St. Cecilia, said to be built by her, in the church of the Lateran canons, called San Giovanni in Monte ; it after- wards belonged to the lords of Bentivogli. Peter Luconsis, one of these canons, wrote her Life from a contemporary anonymous one. Her worship and miracles are described by Prospero Lam- l)ertini, afterwards Benedict XIV. Stilt- ing, in AA.SS.

After many frightful tortures, through which she was miraculously defended, she was put to death with a sword. AASS., from Basil's Menolofjy. St Heliena, April 20, V., was bom of humble parents at Lauriano, near PflBstum, and was so pious that she was considered mad by her friends and neighbours. Ouided by an angel, she went and lived in a cave, where she had nothing to eat but raw vegetables. When it became known to the monks in the neighbouring monastery of Bofrano, they offered to send her her daily food, which she accepted on condition of being allowed to work for the Church. She made gowns and cowls for the monks, and garments of different coloured pieces for the shepherds. After a time, the fame of her sanctity spread abroad ; sick people came to her from the sur- rounding country. She laid her hands on them and they recovered. When she died, the bells of the monastery began to ring without being touched by mortal hand. The monks wanted to bury her in their own church, but the angel who had first led her there would not allow it, but quickly appeared in a vision to the Bishop of Psestum, and told him to send pious and trustworthy men to bring the body of the saint and bury it at Pffistum. The bishop awoko in a fright, and sent immediately to the place described by the angel, brought the body to his church, and buried it there with all possible honour. The city of PaDstum is believed to have been destroyed by the Saracens, consequently these events must have happened before their time. Under the Norman rule the bishop no longer took his title from P»stum, but from Capaccio Nuovo. The first document referring to a Bishop of Capaccio Nuovo (CaputaqusB) is dated 1126. AA.SS,, from the lessons for her festi- val in the church of Capaccio Nuovo. St Helimdrude, May 31 (Helen- DRUDE, Helmetrude, Helmtruth, per- haps Hiltrude). 11th century. A recluse at Iborg, in the diocese of Osnabruck, and honoured at Herse, or Hoerse, in the diocese of Paderbom, in Westphalia. She is perhaps the same as Hiltritde (2), to whom St. Cordula appeared and told her story. If so, she probably lived in the 12th century. AA.SS., Prseter. Migne, Die, Haj. Oynecseum^ Oct. 31.
