The statue of Saint Mark, the second evangelist in the traditional order, also shows him with a book in his left hand.
Next to him and by the fountain we found a lion, symbol of this evangelist, of strength, wisdom and justice. Under the statue of Saint Mark is the Latin inscription: <<SICUT SCRIPTUM EST IN ISAIA PROPHETA... VOX CLAMANTIS IN DESERTO», translated as <<as it is written in the prophet Isaiah. A voice crying in the desert ».
On the back of the pedestal of this statue of Saint Mark is an inscription commemorating the meritorious work of one of the sanctuary's greatest benefactors: <<YEAR 1767 BEING A CARER AND BENEFICIAL MANUEL REBELO DA COSTA» . The construction of this site was possible thanks to the benevolence of this fellow member.
