Virgin, shepherdess, born Pibrac, near Toulouse, France, 1579; died there, 1601. She was a cripple, and passed her short life tending sheep. Her only food was bread and water, her bed a litter of vine branches; she was noted for her intense devotion to Our Lady and the Blessed Sacrament. Forty-three years after her death her body was found perfectly intact; and a series of cures was wrought at her relics. Represented in art with a shepherd's crook or a distaff; a watchdog, a sheep, or with flowers in her apron. Canonized, 1867. Relics at Pibrac, France. Feast, June 15,.
