OOps... I´ve seen, this is the 101st post... Sorry :-)
Time just flies doesn't it! Congratulations on reaching the 100+ mark!
Saint Liborius....who is he??? Obviously someone over there knows him ;-)
Glad to see you safely passed the 100.
Liborius of Le Mans B (RM)
Died 390. Liborius, the second or third bishop of Le Mans (348 to 390), is the patron of Paderborn, to which his relics were translated in 836 (Benedictines, Encyclopedia). In art, Saint Liborius is depicted as a bishop with a peacock. He may be carrying small stones on a book (Roeder). Liborius is invoked against colic, fever, and gallstones (Roeder).
very beautiful!
100 0r 101, doesn't matter because you've hit a mark. Well done! Can't wait for the next 100 (or 99) :)
