St. (in Italian, St. Bovo, and in English, St. Bobo), was a gentleman and soldier of Provence, who strongly defended his country against the Saracens. After a time, he quitted the profession of arms, and devoted himself to a life of penitence and retirement, every year making a pilgrimage on foot to Rome, on one of which journeys he died, at Voghera, near Pavia; May 22, 985.
