Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Dedications Patron Saints of English Churches: Ecclesiastical Symbolism, Saints and Their Emblems This book should be pleasant to read, for it has been pleasant to write. It grew out of a perusal of Miss Arnold-Forster's Studies in Church Dedications (3 vols., Skeffington, 1899). Of this the third volume is composed of statistics, and gives the first and only complete list of saints commemorated in the dedications of English churches. These include modern as well as mediaeval dedications. It seemed worth while to strip off all dedications of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, leaving only those of more ancient date. The next step was to arrange these earlier dedications in order of frequency of occurrence, as a key to the respective popularity or unpopularity of the various saints. The results, both as to popularity and unpopularity, were so surprising that it was hardly possible not to pursue the inquiry further, and endeavour to ascertain how the old churchmen came to have such very different ideas from our own as to the merits or demerits of the saints. The inquiry turned out not to be easy, as may be judged from the long list of books in the bibliography (see below) which it was necessary to read and digest. Then some sort of order or system of arrangement had to be devised. It would not have been very profitable to discuss haphazard, just as they happened to occur in order of frequency, saints of such diverse characteristics as S. Andrew, S. Nicholas, S. Margaret, S. Helena, S. Thomas of Canterbury, and the rest; it would be to compare chalk with cheese. It was necessary to divide them up into various categories. Of these evidently the first category was of those saints whose biography, or part of it, appears in the New Testament. Even here the results of the order of merit, if it may be so termed, of the Biblical saints required considerable inquiry and discussion. How did it come about, for instance, that SS. Andrew and Matthew should have such overwhelming popularity as against other apostles and evangelists? About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Evidence for these things is that in the great collegiate church of Ludlow, founded by the Confessor, the stained glass in the chapel of S. John Evangelist depicts the story of the Ring. Also the name of " Havering" is held to be a corruption of "Have a ring." Nor did people forget that Our Lord went about healing the sick, and was at least as ready to relieve their bodies as their souls. Of all his pastoral duties, what S. John of Beverley liked best was to nurse and tend the sick. Julian the Hospitaller and his wife Basilissa, on their wedding night, consecrated their lives to the service of God and man; their house they turned into a i In stained glass at Sandringham, S.

It is told of S. Elizabeth of Hungary that she laid in her bed a foul leper whom no one would tend any longer. The indignant duke, her husband, tore off the bedclothes, when "at that instant God Almighty opened the eyes of his soul, and instead of the leper he saw on the bed the figure of Christ Crucified." Another day when he met her, she had a heavy basket of food she was carrying to the poor. She was ashamed when he asked her what she was carrying; but when he insisted on looking in, there was nothing inside but red and white roses. A very popular saint was S. Roch. This is William Caxton's version of his story, translated from the Golden Legend. "Now this Roch was ever in great study how he might in the name of...
