May 2, 2009: Mandeville on the proof of the True Cross - 0 Comments

"And that was the very cross assayed; for they found three crosses, one of our Lord, and two of the two thieves; and Saint Helen proved them by a dead body that arose from death to life, when that it was laid on it, that our Lord died on."


- John Mandeville, The Travels of John Mandeville, 1351.
