Janesel, a 12-year-old mute boy, used to take his flock to pasture, together with other shepherds, just above Bosentino, in an area where ferns (feles) grew. One day in 1620 a "Lady" appeared to him. He looked at him, pointed with his hand to a precise place, where a large fern had grown, and, touching the stone there and leaving an imprint on it, asked Janesel to have a chapel built in veneration of the Madonna. The chapel was built and Janesel regained the word.
