Her husband was cured by the magician, but then she herself began to have alarming dreams, in which she was pursued by Ethiopians and enormous black dogs, and in another nightmare she saw herself in the Hippodrome embracing the nude male statues there, ‘urged by an impure desire of having intercourse with them’. St Andrew exorcized her demon of desire, and she and her sober husband lived happily ever after.
