For memory’s sake, I must memorialise this anecdote from the Cenaculum. We’d had a lecture about the Norbertine Order the day before, and were presently viewing photos from various Dominican churches around Florence. This one image had us stumped trying to figure it out…

“Fortasse…est Jesus sancti Dominicani a purgatorio salvantes?”

Appreciative murmurs arise from the crowd.

“Ubi est Norbertini?”

Then Michael C. replies, “In caelo.”
