pious person

The font was probably rescued by some pious person, for the one now in the church is a fine Norman one, with cable moulding.

From another pious person in this city, John Yeardley received a word of timely encouragement.

He was a great scholar, and himself under some suspicion of knowing more than it would be good for any less pious person to know.

A pious person thinks every one wicked but themselves, and condemns everybody and everything all round them.

I knew it for the parish pall bequeathed by some pious person for the use of parishioners.
