    attacked the Convent. The Comunity begged for mercy but the invaders were deaf to their pleading. The Abbess prayed to God to spare them and in answer to her prayers the party were struck blind. The invaders were deaf to their pleading but they promised never again to attack the Convent. They were told to go to a well near by and bathe their eyes in it, they did so and their sight was immediately restored. That night the well was invested with healing powers. From that day to this people come to the well to get cured of sore eyes.
