One of the patron saints of Naples, more especially of the Lazzaroni. The yearly liquefaction of the Saint’s blood was said to propitiate Vesuvius. Mr. Sichel, in his Emma, Lady Hamilton, states that the Saint was accused of Jacobinism at the outbreak of the French Revolution, and that his statue was condemned in court.
