- OUR LADY'S JUGGLER-ANATOLE FRANCE
- One day, therefore, when Barnabas was alone in the chapel, the Prior entered in company with two of the oldest brothers, in order to watch, through the bars of the door, what was going on within.
- is brother Barnabas praying to the virgin mary
- In honor of the Holy Virgin he was performing the tricks which had in former days brought him the greatest fame. Not understanding that he was thus putting his best talents at the service of the Holy Virgin, the aged brothers cried out against such sacrilege.
- They saw Barnabas before the image of the Holy Virgin, his head on the floor and his feet in the air, juggling with six copper balls and twelve knives.
- The Prior knew that Barnabas had a simple soul, but he believed that the man had lost his wits. All three set about to remove Barnabas from the chapel...
- HES GOING NUTS!
- WHAT ARE YOU DOING BARNABAS!
- ...when they saw the Virgin slowly descend from the altar and, with a fold of her yellow mantle,
- oh my child you have a sweat on your head let me wipe that out for you
- is this a power of a God!?
- is this real!
- The Virgin wiped the sweat that streamed over the juggler's forehead
- Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.
- Then the Prior, bowing his head down to the marble floor, repeated these words:
- Amen.
