FOOTNOTES

1 An English translation of this Treatise was published under the
following title:--"A very profitable Treatise, declarynge what great
profit might come to all Christendom yf there were a regester made
of all the saincts' bodies and other reliques which are as well in
Italy as in France, Dutchland, Spaine, and other kingdoms and
conntreys. Translated out of the French into English by J. Wythers,
London, 1561." 16mo. I have made my translation from the French
original, reprinted at Paris in 1822.

2 It is well known that more than half a million of pilgrims went to
worship the holy coat of Treves in 1844, and that many wonderful
stories about the cures effected by that relic were related. Several
of these stories are not altogether without foundation, because
there are many cases where imagination affects the human body in
such a powerful manner as to cause or cure various diseases. It was
therefore to be expected that individuals suffering from such
diseases should be at least temporarily relieved from their ailings
by a strong belief in the miraculous powers of the relic. Cases of
this kind are always noticed, whilst all those of ineffectual
pilgrimage are never mentioned.

3 A translation of this letter was published in the _Allgemeine
Zeitung_ of Augsburg.

4 Thus St Anthony of Padua restores, like Mercury, stolen property; St
Hubert, like Diana, is the patron of sportsmen; St Cosmas, like
Esculapius, that of physicians, &c. In fact, almost every profession
and trade, as well as every place, have their especial patron saint,
who, like the tutelary divinity of the Pagans, receives particular
honours from his or her _proteges_.
