亚麻布一般用来包裹死者的尸体，之所以称之为“身披亚麻布”的塞拉皮昂是因为他在身上只披一件亚麻布，并将《福音书》随手携带。塞拉皮昂的生活象一只鸟，没有任何忧虑，从一个地方来到另一个地方。他将自己仅有的亚麻布衣服送给了一个寒冷中冻得发抖、赤身裸体的人。当有人问他：“塞拉皮昂，谁使你脱去了衣服？”塞拉皮昂指着圣福音书说：“是这个！”之后，塞拉皮昂连福音书都送给了一个穷人作为赎金，因为这个穷人的债主向他讨债，并以将他投入到监狱加以威胁。有一次在雅典，塞拉皮昂4天没有进食一点东西，因为他没有任何东西，于是大叫起来。雅典哲学家问他为什么大叫时，塞拉皮昂回答说：“我有三个债主，其中的两个已经满意而归，但是第三个仍纠缠我不放。第一个债主是从年轻时起纠缠我的肉欲；第二个时债主是贪婪；第三个债主就是胃口。前两个债主已经离开了我，唯独这第三个债主仍然在纠缠着我。”雅典哲学家送给了他一个金币，让他买面包得以充饥。塞拉皮昂来到了一个面包店，仅仅买了一条面包，将金币留给了面包店老板而后离开了。塞拉皮昂在年迈之际于公元5世纪离世
