Description
pubOne.info present you this new edition. I had occasion to pass a week in the autumn in the little old town of Coire or Chur, in the Grisons, where lies buried that very ancient British king, saint, and martyr, Lucius, * who founded the Church of St.
Peter, on Cornhill. Few people note the church now-a-days, and fewer ever heard of the saint.
In the cathedral at Chur, his statue appears surrounded by other sainted persons of his family.
With tight red breeches, a Roman habit, a curly brown beard, and a neat little gilt crown and sceptre, he stands, a very comely and cheerful image: and, from what I may call his peculiar position with regard to Cornhill, I beheld this figure of St.
Lucius with more interest than I should have bestowed upon personages who, hierarchically, are, I dare say, his superiors.
