Soliloquy in an International Cloister

Watch your step as Brother Lawrence takes you inside the monastery walls of a five hundred year-old international order. You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll wish you had ignored your hormones and joined the monastery.

Legenda Fratrum, pars XX

An elderly brother was visiting from another monastery in order to attend a funeral....

Solicitous brother: How are you getting back to your monastery, brother?

Elderly brother: The undertaker is going to drive me there.

Solicitous brother: Make sure you sit up and occasionally say something!
