BACURIUS

Volume 3 · 70 words · 1810 Edition

or Baturius, king of the Iberians, a people on the side of the Caftian sea. One day being a-hunting, he lost sight of his company, through a great storm and sudden darkness; upon which he vowed to the God of his Christian faith, that if he were delivered he would worship him alone: the day breaking up immediately, he made good his promise, and became the apostle of his country.
