temple to Venus. In this temple was nn
oracle of much note, and, long after Christi
anity had conquered the valleys, Paganism
still reigned on these heights and the
mOuntaineers used to come to the Venus
berg TO consult the oracle. But mt last q
certain godly bishop of Geneva was so scan
daliZed by these performances that he led u
band to overthrow the temple and break
the statue Of the goddess, and so, hence

Venus lost her shelter But Satan was
not disposed to quit his old haunts, so he
entered the shape of wild boar and raw
aged the country and tore in pieces all
pious travellers who refused to deny the
name Of Christ and the apostles. But this
could not last.

I4angin. encountered this satanic wild boar
The boar devoured the servant Of de Lam
gin in a trice and wounded the chevalier
himself, when the noble gentleman uttered
vow that ii he were delivered from death
he would huild on the spot chapel and
consecrate il to the Holy Virgin. This ex-
cellent offer was accepted by the higher
powers, and the wild boar forthwith ex-
pired under the sword of the knight The
Sieur de I.angin erected the chapel accord
ing to his vow and beside it he built a
hermitage, whittier he retired from the
gay uses of the world and passed the rest

was called, worked many miracles, one of
which was in favor Of beautiful girl
