St. John of Nepomuk
Set a guard over my mouth, O Lord, keep watch over the door of my lips.
— Ps 141:3
Vicar general of the Archdiocese of Prague, whom King Wenceslaus IV had tortured and thrown from the Charles Bridge into the Vltava – according to tradition for refusing to reveal the queen's confession. His statues stand by bridges across Central Europe. Faithfulness also shows in what you keep silent.
