- Profile
- Bishop of Soissons.
Established several foundations, even getting the tyrant Ebroin, who cared nothing for the Church, to help establish a chapel for sick nuns.
Mediaeval legend says that to spend the night at Drausinus' tomb made one invincible; whole platoons of soldiers used to camp out at the tomb the night before a battle.
His patronage also helps thwart the plans of your enemies, and Saint Thomas Becket visited the tomb before returning to the treachery he knew awaited him at home.
