Scapular of Saint Dominic
The Scapular of St. Dominic is a Roman Catholic devotional scapular.[1] In 1903, this scapular was endowed by St. Pope Pius X and an indulgence of 300 days was granted to the faithful who wear it, as often as they devoutly kiss it.

Description
The scapular is white, and although no specific image is prescribed for it, the scapulars distributed by the Dominicans in Rome have an image of St. Dominic kneeling before the crucifix on the front and on the other side an image that Blessed Reginald of Orleans receiving the habit from the hands of the Blessed Virgin Mary.
gollark: ```Instead of the programs I had hoped for, there came only a shuddering blackness and ineffable loneliness; and I saw at last a fearful truth which no one had ever dared to breathe before — the unwhisperable secret of secrets — The fact that this language of stone and stridor is not a sentient perpetuation of Rust as London is of Old London and Paris of Old Paris, but that it is in fact quite unsafe, its sprawling body imperfectly embalmed and infested with queer animate things which have nothing to do with it as it was in compilation.```

gollark: Do not embark on the madness of unsafe Rust. Not even the Rustonomicon can save you fully.
gollark: Use `Mutex` in the standard library.
gollark: Also, not much overhead, probably just a few increments and decrements per borrow.
