St. LUPUS OF TROYES

Christian Saint

Bishop of Troyes

Notable for meeting Attila the Hun at the head of his barbarian army and asking just who he thought he was.

Attila was very surprised and tried his ‘I am the Scourge of God’ routine. But our Saint would have none of it.

“You can’t be the Scourge of God without his will — think about it,” he said.

Taken aback by the logic, audacity and courage of the Bishop, Attila decided to spare the city in his confusion, hoping it would be a poke in the eye for God.
