In the fourth century, a soldier, Martin of Tours, entered Amiens’ city gates where he saw a beggar shivering in the cold. Using his sword, Martin cut his cape (“cappa” in Latin) in half and gave part to the beggar.
That night, he dreamed that Christ appeared wearing the beggar’s half of the cape and identified himself to Martin as the beggar.
This dream so affected Martin that he became a Christian and entered religious service, founding a monastery. After his death, he was canonized and named France’s patron saint.
St. Martin’s cape became an object of veneration carried into battle by French kings. Its portable shrine was called the “capella’ and its caretaker priest, the “cappellanus.”
