-->George, St.
Early Christian martyr and patron saint of England. His historical existence is uncertain, but from the 6th cent. he was the subject of legends as a warrior-saint. He was said to have rescued a Libyan king's daughter from a dragon, which he killed in return for a promise that the king's subjects would be baptized. In art, the young saint often wears knight's armor ornamented with a scarlet cross. He probably became England's patron saint in the 14th cent., when Edward III made him patron of the Order of the Garter.
