@trias3triad: When Zosimas asked whether she had read the Psalms, she told him she had seen no human face since crossing the Jordan, and had "never learned from books." She asked him to tell no one her story until God took her from this earth. A year after he brought her Communion, he returned and found her lying dead, her face turned to the east. Written on the ground beside her was a note asking him to bury her, and saying she had died on the very night she received Communion. The place where she died had taken Zosimas twenty days to walk to. When he could not dig the hard ground, a lion appeared beside her body and dug the grave. Her Life was written down by St Sophronius, Patriarch of Jerusalem. She is commemorated on April 1 and on the Fifth Sunday of Great Lent.
