St. Louis, king of France, on his death-bed, was asked by the priest who brought him the Viaticum, whether he really believed that Jesus Christ, the Son of God, was present in the host. The saint, collecting all his strength, answered with a loud voice “I believe it as firmly as if I saw Him present in the host, just as the Apostles saw Him when He ascended gloriously into heaven.” (As recounted by Fr. Michael Müller in his work “The Blessed Eucharist Our Greatest Treasure.”, Imprimatur Abp. Martinus Joannes 22 October, 1867., pg. 24)
