“
(About the martyrdom of Saint Ursula and the eleven thousand virgins she converted to the Christian faith) All the virgins, accompanied by the bishops, set out on their return journey to Cologne, but found it already besieged by the Huns. When the barbarians saw them, they threw themselves at them, screaming, and raged like wolves among lambs, killing the whole multitude. When they had massacred the others and reached Saint Ursula, the leader of the Huns, seeing her beauty, was filled with wonder and, trying to console her for the slaughter of the other virgins, promised to marry her. However, Ursula refused, and the Hun leader, seeing himself despised, shot an arrow at her, which pierced her and killed her. Thus she crowned her martyrdom. (p. 866) — JACOBUS DE VORAGINE
