The sword is mightier than the pen

Ragyndrudis Codex

 * ... that Saint Boniface allegedly used a book (now a contact relic in Fulda) to ward off Frisian sword blows at his martyrdom in 754 (pictured)?

 * Symbol voting keep.svg Date OK, length well over what is required. Hook OK (but I wonder if "Frisian" should also be linked) and is partly confirmed by a online citation, and partly by an offline one that is AGF.  Article well written, well cited, neutral, and I could find no copyvio.  The image is in the PD. --Peter I. Vardy (talk) 15:56, 10 August 2014 (UTC)


 * Am I spoiling the fun saying that the bracket is holding up the flow of the hook? Drop it or place it at the end, or get the book to the front? You don't want people to read about St. Boniface I guess. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 21:55, 10 August 2014 (UTC)


 * Agree. IMO better to drop it.  --Peter I. Vardy (talk) 09:44, 11 August 2014 (UTC)
