Dear listers
 
Somewhat off-topic, I'm mainly hoping someone will tell me the correct place 
to ask the question:
 
A colleague is working on a 13-14th century CE manuscript of a Danish Bible 
translation which is mostly just a straight rendering of the Vulgate, but has 
occasional additions.
 
One tells of an instant, where the soul of a dying, pious man refuses to 
leave the body, and "it's (the soul's) angel" has to fetch king David with 
his musical instrument to persuade the soul.
 
The instance is reported as a note to 1 Sam 16,23 (David driving the eveil 
spirit away from Saul) in the manuscript.
 
There is bound to be a source for this information, be it an apocryphal 
gospel or an independent legend or whatever. But where???
 
any suggestions highly appreciated
