It suddenly struck me that St. Anthony is the patron saint of lost causes, the recovery of lost items (including people, things and intangible spiritual goods) and in Spain and Portugal (and some former Spanish and Portuguese colonies) he's also the patron saint of marriages and people looking for love. And knowing how Neil Gaiman operates I think that may not be a coincidence.

What do you mean it’s not normal to rub a piece of cloth on the tongue of a dead man?
