St. Bernard and nine pilgrims came upon a dragon and a giant. Bernard stopped them with the sign of the cross, then took his cloak put it around the dragon's neck. Magically, the cloak turned into chains that held the dragon long enough for the pilgrims to kill it.

The ends of the chain, which remained silken, were kept as holy relics in the abbey of St. Maurice-en-Valais.
