James, no one else, not even the Virgin Mary having so many. This equalizing of the reverence paid to St. Peter and St. Paul is a marked feature DEDICATIONS OF ALTARS. 25 1 of the early Anglo-Saxon Church. Not- withstanding this insertion of St. Paul, at the conclusion of the poem Aldhelm says, " I have now gone through the twelve names of the Fathers " ; he has gone through thirteen. It is difficult to see any distinction of treatment as among the thirteen names. The verses describe their tria...ls and their works. In another poem, next to be referred to, we have more opportunity for determining the relative places of the two chief Apostles, or Princes of the Apostles, St. Peter and St. Paul. In the present poem, the Virgin Mary is urged to hear mercifully the prayers of the people, who moisten the ground with their tears and beat the earth with bended knee, earning pardon by the fount of tears and blotting out the sins of life by frequent prayers. No such address is made to any one of the thirteen who are honoured next ; but at the end Aldhelm prays them all to lighten the burden of his sins and loose his offences by pardon, that relying on divine grace ^ he may ultimately reach heaven.
