47.
A blind woman sought help at the tomb of Saint Martin in Tours. Martin told her that she ought to go to a basilica of Saint Julian (basilica sancti Iuliani).
The woman arose and, not knowing that some relics of this martyr were kept in Tours, went to the city of Saintes. For there the matron Victorina, of noble birth, had built a basilica in the of her country house in which she had placed relics of the blessed martyr. To this building the woman went and prayed for three days.
The third day was that of the birth of John, the Lord's Baptist. While the people were standing, listening to the biblical readings, suddenly a great murmuring arose. The presbyter who celebrated the solemnity, wishing to suppress the voices, asked what this was. One of those present said to him: "The murmuring cannot be quitened down because the Lord's power has produced a miracle. For here is a woman who says she has been blind from birth, and she received her sight when blood flowed from her eyes!" Then everyone, learning what had happened, blessed God.
