The stories of visions, apparitions, etc. which are told in connection with the Saints are far too numerous to quote.

St. Benedict and St. Meletius, all appeared during life in places distant from their actual bodily whereabouts. Phantasms of the Dead. St. Anselm saw the slain body of William Rufus, St.
