Passio Dormientium septem

Huber 1902-3

▼▲

Comment:: Aelfric no doubt recalling his own narrative in Catholic Homilies II 27 (=C.B.1.2.34) lines 184-231, which draws in turn on the account printed by Huber (1902-3). Zettel (1979) notes that the duration of the sleep (372 years) corresponds closely to the figure (370) in the Cotton-Corpus legendary version of this source.
Bibliography:: Zettel 1979, 192-4; Huber 1910, 157
