   • 1915, Julio Vicuña Cifuentes, Mitos y Supersticiones Recogidos de la Tradición Oral Chilena, page 184:

     San Antonio es santo que necesita ser tratado con rigor; por eso las muchachas, que son sus devotas habituales, hacen con él perrerías: colocan su imagen boca abajo, la cuelgan invertida, la sumergen en el agua, etc.; todo esto por tiempo indefinido, hasta que el taumaturgo les concede lo que piden.
