Dunstan, checking in.

Happy feast day of St. Dunstan!

St Dunstan, as the story goes,
Once pull’d the devil by the nose
With red-hot tongs, which made him roar,
That he was heard three miles or more.

hammering a horseshoe over a door to the dismay of a black cat and the devil
o et praesidium et dulce decus meum, / oh, my guardian and my sweet glory,
