Excerpt from Zeitschrift für Deutsches Alterthum, 1869, Vol. 2
Von jenem volksmäfsigen hauche, der uns die Casus S. Galli so werth macht, ist in dem liber benedict. Wenig zu spüren, sondern es waltet darin nur kirchliche gelehrsamkeit. Einige sagenhafte vor stellungen haben sich wohl in die heilige geschichte eingeschlichen, so wenn der dichter auf die Johannesminne anspielt1)‚ wenn der erz engel Raphael als geburtshelfer der jungfrau, Michael als vorkämpfer der abgeschiedenen seelen erscheint wenn das abgeschlagene haupt des Johannes unter der bettstatt der Herodias begraben und das weibdes Pontius Pilatus vom alpdrücken befallen wird doch bleibt dies vereinzelt und im ganzen bewegen wir uns in einem sehr bekannten kreise, dessen gestalten nur selten ein individuel leres gepräge verrathen. Besondere vorliebe hegt Ekkehart für ver gleichungen aus der alten, namentlich der römischen geschichte wie gleich die vorrede sie zeigt. So heifst es von Gregors des gr. Beredsamkeit (s. 49)
