Reading edition
Mrs. Jameson (Sacred and Legendary Art, i., 208) has given fully the legend of St. James. In the year 936 he appeared to King Ramirez in Spain promising him a victory over the Moors, and, on the following day, he (St. James) appeared at the head of the army on a milk-white horse, when sixty thousand Moors were slain; hence the Spanish war-cry “Santiago.”
