medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
I found this text in Chevalier, Repertorium hymnicum, vol. 1, p. 283 no.
4707. There it is given as: Dionysi, radius Greciae. There is a chapter
on St. Denis & the French crown in Colette Beaune, The birth of an
ideology, tr.. SR. Huston (Berkeley: U of California Pr, 1991).
