“Raising the left hand, he took hold of the Saint’s fingers and put his fingers between them.”

This was perhaps one of the stranger moments in the entire chronicle. It does show, however, the mystical nature of the Saint himself. The body itself is completely intact and not subject to decay. His head is intact, his toes and feet are intact. Almost as if to confirm this, each of the Saint’s limbs is examined. Certainly, they would have thought as well that there was some divine grace or favor connected with the touching of the Saint’s body, almost as if he were a relic.
