  1. Stories connected with
    Jesus Christ.
    1. When Our Lord was hanging on the Cross, a robin light on the Cross beside him and tried to pull a thorn from His brow and in doing so a drop of blood from Our Lord's head, fell on its breast and from that on, every robin has a red breast.
    2. When Our Lord was fleeing with his Parents, to Egypt, they used an ass and on account of Our Lord riding it, a cross is to be seen on every asse's back from that on.
