In the 5th century, Leo Markell, a noble warrior and the future emperor, met an exhausted blind traveler in a forest, who could not find his way home. Leo helped the poor wanderer to get to the cool of the shade and went in search of water. At that time he saw an apparition of the Mother of God, Who showed him a spring commanding to give the poor man some water and anoint his eyes with mud, after which he recovered his sight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00abRejoice, Life-Giving Source, showing miracles over the seas and over the entire universe. A smart ocean surpassing the streams of the Nile with the outpouring of grace, Siloame the second, exuding water like from a glorious stone and reflecting Jordan's act, salutary Manna being for all seeking demand, truly rich and unenviable, Christ's Virgin Mother, pouring Your great mercy out on the world\u00bb.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

During his reign, Lev Markell erected a church in honor of the Mother of God on that place and called the spring \"Life-Giving Source\".<\/p>\n\n\n\n
