        'Guide to Saint Peter's Basilica' From: 
        'Seminarian's Guide' Here lie the remains of St. Gregory of Nazianzus (d. 390) - one of the great Cappadocian Fathers, who helped clarify the wording of the mystery of the Holy Trinity. In the spandrels, Nazianzus together with St. Gregory the Great, St. Basil the Great, and St. Jerome. When Christians fell 
        under the domination of Muslim masters, they often found themselves in 
        slavery when they refused to renounce their faith. Christians would sometimes 
        cooperate to raise funds to buy these slaves their freedom, often under 
        the patronage of Our Lady of Succor - Our Lady, Help of Christians.
