Scholarly Info
Description During the middle of the night two angelic youths approached Anonymous 570 and offered him solace. They told Anonymous 570 to follow them and they guided him to a church which he entered and in which he met a certain bishop (Swithhun 5) in front of the altar. Swithhun 5 spoke to Anonymous 570 in admonitory words and then revealed his identity. When the saint had finished talking to Anonymous 570, the man was taken back to his own home and he woke up. Anonymous 570 then called his wife (Anonymous 571) and told her in detail what he had seen.
