Sacred monastery! May our prayer rise toward the heavens!
Come, faithful pilgrim, guided by your zeal, to offer your vows to this chapel.
Sacred monastery! May our prayer rise toward the heavens!
- Aren't you going to pray with them? - I cannot.
Might I have guessed what troubles your heart? God is no longer enough for you.
You speak truth, my Father.
When I am prepared to take my irrevocable vows at your feet, I find myself looking at earthly attractions with grief, regret, and love.
Go on…
At the altar protected by Saint James, which is besieged by a crowd of pilgrims…
I was praying, invoking the radiant angels, when suddenly one of them appeared before my eyes!
Speak, my son…
An angel, an unknown woman, upon her knees prayed beside me.
At the sight of her, I began trembling with pleasure and fear.
My Father! How beautiful she was! Hopelessly against my will, whenever I pray to God, all I see is her!
God is no longer enough for you.
Since my hand touched hers as I sprinkled holy water on her, my spirit has soared beyond these walls to dream of a different fate.
To all my unfaithful vows, and seeking the aid of heaven, it is God to whom I pray, but her who I always see in my heart!
You, my son, my only hope, upholder of the faith… you who were soon to succeed me? You?
My Father… I love her!
