[Footnote 60: I have not leisure to expatiate on the legends
of St. Bridget or St. Catharine, the last of which might
furnish some amusing stories. Their effect on the mind of
Gregory XI. is attested by the last solemn words of the
dying pope, who admonished the assistants, ut caverent ab
hominibus, sive viris, sive mulieribus, sub specie
religionis loquentibus visiones sui capitis, quia per tales
ipse seductus, &c., (Baluz. Not ad Vit. Pap. Avenionensium,
tom. i. p. 1224.)]
