“Then Paschasius summoned procurers and said to them: “Invite a crowd to take their pleasure with this woman, and let them abuse her until she is dead.” But when they tried to carry her off, the Holy Spirit fixed
her in place so firmly that they could not move her. Paschasius called in a thousand men and had her hands and feet bound, but still they could not lift her. He sent for a thousand yoke of oxen: the Lord’s holy virgin could
not be moved.” (Jacobus de Voragine, Golden Legend. Princeton, 2012 reprint. Page 29)
