PHOCAS, martyr (about A.D. 320)
At Antioch, after many sufferings endured for the name of Christ, Phocas triumphed over the Old Serpent, a victory which is testified, to this day, by a miracle. for whoever is bitten by a serpent, having touched, full of faith, the door of the basilica of the martyr, is immediately cured, the poison at once losing its power; so says the Roman Martyrology.

I hope list members will allow this small off topic
enquiry, but at present I'm researching the patrons of
Palladio and the name Cornaro keeps cropping up, the
Villa Cornaro ora Gable for example in Piombino Dese.
I was wondering if anyone knew the familial
relationship between the members of the clan included
in the Bernini, and Giorgio Cornaro who patronised
Palladio. Any info would be most welcome.
Thanks in advance
Jim
