Devil's PillarThere are preserved at Prague three stones of a pillar that the devil is said to have brought from Rome to crush a priest with whom he had made a compact. The devil planned to kill him while he said mass, but, says the legend, St. Peter threw the devil and his pillar into the sea three times in succession, which gave the priest time for repentance. The devil was so chagrined that he broke the pillar and saved himself. |
