Excerpt from Folk-Lore and Legends
On one of these occasions he noticed on the cross a pretty, bright insect, of such a brilliant hue that he could not recollect having ever before seen the like in an insect. He wondered greatly at this, but still he did not disturb it. The insect did not remain long quiet, but ran without ceasing back wards and forwards upon the cross, as if it was in pain and wanted to get away.
