About St. Dennis . . . Also known as St. Denis. Bishop of Paris, and martyr. Born in Italy, nothing is definitely known of the time or place, or of his early life. While still very young he was distinguished for his virtuous life, knowledge of sacred things, and firm faith. He is usually represented with his head in his hands because, according to the legend, after his execution the corpse rose again and carried the head for some distance.
