APOLLINE. French form of Greek Apollonia
(q.v.), meaning "of Apollo."
... St. Apolline, as the
French call Apollonia, is the favorite subject of invocation in the
tooth-ache... (History of Christian Names, Yonge, 1884)
... On the last day of Michaelmas,
under the form of a wolf, at a mile from Dôle, in the farm of Gorge, a
vineyard belonging to Chastenoy, near the wood of La Serre, Gilles Garnier
had attacked a little maiden of ten or twelve years old, and had slain her
with his teeth and claws; he had then drawn her into the wood, stripped
her, gnawed the flesh from her legs and arms, and had enjoyed his meal so
much, that, inspired with conjugal affection, he had brought some of the
flesh home for his wife Apolline... (The Book of Were-wolves,
Baring-Gould, 1865)
