Dru Posted June 16, 2003 Share Posted June 16, 2003 June 15. St Vitus Day. His bones were supposed to be able to cure St Vitus' Dance, a sort of violent chorea. His nurse Crescentia, who supposedly converted him to Christianity, seems an emblem of the Moon goddess, the crescent moon, and his name ('life' in Latin) indicates that he too is a spurious saint. He was especially venerated in Westphalia, where bones said to be his had rested since the ninth century AD., though his legend assigned him to the time of Diocletian, six hundred years earlier. Anybody do St Vitus Dance on the Apron today Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
