” Lord, if I have been a worthy servant to you, grant me one small favor. Let me at least hit him with the candle. After all Lord, what is a candle?”
No, replied Christ comma your hands are made for blessing.
Dom Camillo sighed genuflected and left the altar as he turned to make the final sign of the cross he found himself exactly behind Pipino who knelt at the altar Rail and appeared absorbied in prayer.
Lord, grown dumb Camelio, clasping his hands and looking at the crucifix, my hands were made for blessing but not my feet.
