Legend of the Purgatory of St. Patrick

Knight Owein listens to the enumerations of the torments of the purgatory by the prior.

L'Espurgatoire Seint Patriz or The Legend of the Purgatory of Saint Patrick is a 12th-century poem by Marie de France. It is an Old French translation of a Latin text Tractatus de Purgatorio Sancti Patricii by the monk Henry of Saltrey.[1] However, Marie's version is amplified from the original Latin.
