St. Benedict loved the cross and used it to drive away demons. The vertical beam of the Cross has five letters: C.S.S.M.L.,  meaning Crux Sacra Sit Mihi Lux (May the holy Cross be for me a light). The horizontal beam of the Cross also has five letters: N.D.S.M.D., meaning Non Draco Sit Mihi Dux (Let not the dragon be my guide). The four large letters at the angles of the Cross: C S P B stand for Crux Sancti Patris Benedicti (The Cross of the Holy Father Benedict). Encircling the Cross in a circle around the right margin are these letters: V.R.S.N.S.M.V.,> meaning Vade retro  Satana; nunquam suade mihi vana (Begone Satan! Suggest not to me thy vain things). Around the left margin of the circle are these letters: S.M.Q.L.I.V.B., meaning Sunt mala quae libas;  ipse venena bibas (The drink you offer is evil;  drink that poison yourself). At the top of the circle is the word PAX (Peace). Gold Vermeil Center pendants are 18karat gold plate over sterling.
