GEOLOGISTS state that the volcanoes of Auvergne have not been in action in historic times (see Lyell, last ed., p. 479 ; also Jukes and Geikie, p. 354). I find, however, that the Rogation Days were appointed by Mamercus, Bishop of Vienne, in Gaul, about A.D. 460, for the purpose of chanting litanies to stay the volcanic eruptions which were then devastating his diocese (see Robertson's ``.Hist. Ch. Church,'' 4th ed., vol. i. p. 589; also ``Proctor on Book of Common Prayer,'' note, page 251.)
