Summary/Abstract: The library of Zographou, the Bulgarian monastery on Mount Athos, holds nearly four hundred Slavonic manuscripts. The one currently numbered 263 was copied in AD 1785 and describes, among other things, the miracles worked by three icons which continue to be venerated at the monastery. Two of these icons depict St George, the third one shows the Virgin and Child. The eighteenth-century tales about them are published below.
