Locutions in Christianity
The Oxford Dictionary of Saints (1978) reports the locution phenomenon in the life of the St. Henry of Coquet (p. 189), a Dane by birth, who was a hermit on an island off the British coast by Tynemouth:
"After some years a party of
prophesy, telekinesis and reading the secrets of hearts".[2]
Likewise, similar locution case is reported in the life of Saint Mary of Egypt (p. 271, same edition):
"Once at
Blessed Virgin, she was told to go over the Jordan where she would find rest".[3]
