For many years she underwent many persecutions, both from men and demons, but only increased in virtue. When Attila was about to lay siege to Paris, and the inhabitants became panic-stricken, she came forth as their leader, and exhorted them with 84 THE SAINTS IN ART such enthusiasm that she restored their faint- ing spirits. Later on, when Childeric besieged Paris, she was indefatigable in her ministra- tions, and herself took command of the boats that brought in provisions. After the capture ...of the city, Childeric treated her with the same veneration as she received from the Parisians, and through her influence his son Clovis and his wife embraced Christianity. She died in a good old age, and was buried by the side of the King and Queen. She is generally represented veiled, with a lighted taper, or as a shepherdess, with sheep around her, and with a distaff, or book, in her hand. GEORGE, St. (of Cappadocia). (Patron Saint of England. ) (23^ April) According to legend he was born of Christian parents, in the reign of Diocletian, in Cappadocia, and became a tribune in the army.
