Josephus maketh record that the hermit that baptized the thirteen had
the name of Denis, and that the castle was named the Castle of the
Trial. They lived within there until the New Law was assured and
believed in throughout all the kingdoms, and a right good life led they
and a holy. Nor never might none enter with them thereinto but was
slain and crushed save he firmly believed in God. When the thirteen
that were baptized in the castle issued forth thereof they scattered
themselves on every side among strange forests, and made hermitages and
buildings, and put their bodies to penance for the false law they had
maintained and to win the love of the Saviour of the World.
