Saint Patrick’s Stone Dream
Samael [Son of the Blind] came to Saint Patrick at night after the sailors had dined on the pigs. “He fell right over me, like a huge rock, so that none of my limbs had any strength left in them ” Saint Patrick called for the Prophet Elijah to save him. ..“And suddenly, the splendor of that sun flooded over me, and at once I was rid of my powerlessness.” (20, 37, C)
Saint Patrick’s Dream
Saint Patrick dreamed of a man named Victorius when he returned home. Victorius handed him letters that read Vox Hiberionacum - The Voice of The Irish. Saint Patrick then heard voices in his dream crying in unision for him to come back. He decided to go to Saint Martin’s monastery to learn the faith. (4, 8, C)
