The Princess of the Lost Island
"What has become of our beautiful island," the good priests asked in amazement.
"We were anchored off the shore of one of the enchanted islands," was the opinion of everybody.
Euphemia, they say, has not yet disappeared entirely. She has changed her form. She is still found in the Azores in the plant called SOLANEA, the flower of St. Cosmo. She is still doing good deeds. Pain disappears when she comes, just as it did in the lost island. St. Cosmo, the patron saint of all good physicians, could never have gained his reputation without her good deeds.
