Fray Sibyla entered first, Padre Salvi, Padre Martin, and the other priests following. They all made respectful bows with the exception of Padre Sibyla, who even in bending preserved a certain air of superiority. Padre Salvi on the other hand almost doubled himself over the girdle.
"Permit me, señorita, to express the desire to see you again before I leave town. I still have some very important things to say to you. Señor Alcalde, Your Lordship will accompany me for a walk after the conference which I will hold alone with Señor Ibarra." "Your Excellency will permit us," said Father Salví meekly, "to inform you that Señor Ibarra is excommunicated ..."
The Birth of the Baptist and the Cenacolo, of San Salvi, belong to his last and greatest manner. In 1515 the Florentine artists were employed on more perishable works than frescoes. Leo X., the Medici Pope who had been elected in 1513, made his triumphal entry into Florence on the 3rd of September, 1515, on his way to meet Francis I. of France at Bologna.
Father Salví followed, the same as ever, silent and pensive. The young man could feel his heart beat as they approached the designated place. Instinctively, he glanced at the strange-looking scaffolding which had been raised there. He saw, too, the yellow-looking man who saluted him with respect, and, for a moment, Ibarra fixed his eyes on him.
Finally Maria Clara came out of the bath, accompanied by her friends, fresh as a rose when first it blooms, and when the dew on its divine petals glistens like diamonds. Her first smile was for Ibarra; and her first frown for Father Salví. The latter noticed this, but he did not even sigh. It was now time to eat.
The review of the disgraces of each couple was ended, and little by little they were separated, threatening and insulting each other. Father Salví kept going from one side to the other, adding life to the scene. "This very day we will go to Manila and we will present ourselves to the Governor General," said Doña Victorina, in fury to her husband. "You are not a man.
All were talking, even Don Tiburcio, with the exception of Father Sibyla, who maintained a disdainful silence. "I have heard that Your Reverence leaves the town, Father Salví?" asked the newly made lieutenant, now made more amiable by the star on his sleeve. "I have nothing more to do now in San Diego. I am permanently settled in Manila now ... and you?"
Forgetting his rôle, Lucas muttered: "Well, I thought " "Out of here!" cried Father Salví, in a nervous tone. "I want to see Father Dámaso." "Father Dámaso is busy. Out of here!" ordered the curate, in an imperative tone, again. Lucas went down the stairs murmuring: "He is another. How poorly he pays! He who pays better...."
The young woman shuddered, slapped her hand hurriedly over the baby's mouth and ran away in dismay, with the baby crying. Malicious ones winked at each other, and the Spaniards who had witnessed the short scene smiled, while the natural pallor of Padre Salvi changed to the hue of poppies.
You ought to go to purgatory and see if you could get out of there, savage!" Since some of our characters are still living and others have been lost sight of, a real epilogue is impossible. For the satisfaction of the groundlings we should gladly kill off all of them, beginning with Padre Salvi and ending with Doña Victorina, but this is not possible. Let them live!
