    This person (a saint) was the son of a wealthy merchant. His earlier life was a wild and immoral one, living as a musician. He turned his life around one night when he saw a holy man (anonymous as we know it). He quit his music and became a wealthy merchant. He quit this, however, when his money developed a sour odor. From this, he became a monk and made many pilgrimages to Jerusalem. Who is this person?

    Question #68088. Asked by Priscilla9.
