Sire, there was once upon a time a merchant who possessed great wealth, in land and merchandise, as well as in ready money. There was once a merchant who had only one child, a son, that was very young, and barely able to run alone. Meanwhile he conducted the service, but at the point at which he went out to the tomb of his predecessor, he staggered and would have fallen had he not been caught by a merchant standing behind him and by the monk acting as deacon. |
