Note 073
I know not how to select or specify the miracles
contained in the Vitae Patrum of Rosweyde, as the number
very much exceeds the thousand pages of that voluminous
work. An elegant specimen may be found in the Dialogues of
Sulpicius Severus and his Life of St. Martin. He reveres the
monks of Egypt; yet he insults them with the remark that
they never raised the dead; whereas the bishop of Tours had
restored three dead men to life.
