My prayer had been heard. In Rome, Jesus pierced His little plaything, anxious, no doubt, to see what it contained. Then, satisfied with what He found. He let the ball drop and went to sleep. What was He doing throughout His sweet slumber, and what became of the toy He cast aside? Jesus dreamed that He was still at play; that He took up the ball, or throw it down, or else rolled it far away; but that finally He pressed it to His heart and never again allowed it to slip from His hand. You can imagine, dear Mother, the desolation of the little ball as it lay neglected on the ground! Yet it continued to hope against hope.

Shortly after the fateful 20th of November, Papa went call on Brother Simeon , founder and director of St. Joseph's College. There he met Father Reverony, whom he gently reproached for not having helped me through my difficult undertaking. Papa told the whole story to Brother Simeon, and the kind old man showed considerable interest in the matter, even going so far to make notes about it. In conclusion , he remarked with emotion:" Such a thing would not happen in Italy."

On the day following that ever memorable morning of the audience,we started for Naples and Pompeii; Vesuvius did us the honour of emitting from its crater a thick volume of smoke accompanied by numerous loud reports. The traces of devastation over Pompeii are terrifying,and furnish a most striking proof of God's power: "He looketh upon the earth and maketh it tremble; He toucheth the mountains,and they smoke." I should have liked to wander alone among its ruins, pondering on the instability of all things human, but such solitude was not to be thought of.

During our stay at Naples we went for a magnificent drive to the monastery of San Martino, which stands on the crest of a high hill overlooking the whole city. On our way back to the hotel the horses took the bit between their teeth, and it is solely to our Guardian Angels that I attribute our safe arrival at the splendid hotel. The epithet is not too strong. During the pilgrimage we stayed at the grandest hotels, and I, certainly, had never been surrounded by which princely luxury. Yet how true is the saying: Wealth does not make happiness! I should have been a thousand times more contented under a thatched roof with the hope of entering Carmel, than I was amid marble staircases, gilded ceilings, and silken hangings, with my heart full of woe. I thoroughly realized that joy is not found in the things that surround us, but lives only in the soul, and that it may be possessed just as easily in an obscure prison as in the palace of a King. As a proof, I am now happier in Carmel, amid trials within and without, than I was in the world where I had everything I needed, even the sweet joys of an ideal home.

Although my heart was heavy, outwardly I was the same as usual, for I was under the impression that no one had any knowledge of my petition to the Pope; but I was mistaken. On one occasion, when most of the pilgrims had gone to the refreshment-rome and Celine and I were alone, Mgr.Legoux came to the door of our carriage. After carefully scrutinizing me, he said with a smile: "Well, how is our little Carmelite?" I understood by this that my secret was known to the pilgrims, which fact was indeed further emphasized by the looks of sympathy I received ....but happily no one spoke to me on the subject.

While in Assisi, visiting the place sanctified by St.Francis and St.Clare, l had a little adventure, thanks to having lost the buckle of my belt in the monastery. Some time elapsed before I was able to find it and put it on again, with the result that, when I reached the door, all the carriages had gone with the exception of one, and that one belonged to the Vicar-General of Bayeux ! Should I try to catch one of those already out of sight and risk losing the train, or should I beg for a seat in Father Reverony's carriage? I decided on the latter and wiser plan.

My embarrassment was extreme, but I did my best to hide it and at the same time to explain my dilemma. He was now in a difficulty also, for every seat was already occupied, but the problem was quickly solved by one of the occupants giving me his place, and taking a seat beside the driver. I felt like a squirrel caught in a snare, and sat ill-at-eas in the midst of these important people, face to face, as it happened, with the most formidable of them all. Father Revenory was extreme ly kind, however, and every now and then interrupted his conversation to talk with me about Carmel, and to tell me that he would leave nothing undone towards helping me to enter when I was fifteen. This promise was as balmto my wounds, even though it did not put an end to all sufferings. Having lost trust in creatures, it was on God alone I could learn.

Yet my distress did not hinder me from taking a deep interest in the holy places we visited. In the choir of the Carmelite church in Florence we saw the shrine of St. Mary Magdalen of Pazzi, and all the pilgrims were anxious that their rosaries should touch the Saint's tomb. My hand being the only small enough to pass through the grating, I was deputed for this important and rather lengthy task, which I accomplished with pride and delight. This was not the first time I had been so favoured. At Sta. Croce, in Rome, when we venerated the relics of the True Cross, together with two
of the Thorns and
one of the Sacred Nails , I longed to examine them more closely. For this purpose I remained behind, and when the monk in charge was going to replace them on the altar, I asked if might touch the precious treasures. He was quite willing, though doubtful whether I should succeed. I managed, however, to slip my little finger through one of the openings of the reliquary and was able to touch the Sacred Nail once bath by the Blood of our Savior. It is easy to see that I behaved towards our Lord like a child who looks on its father's treasures as its own, and thinks it may do with them as it pleases.

After passing through Pisa and Genoa , we returned to France by one of the loveliest routes. Along part of the line we skirted the sea, and one day,as the result of a storm, the waves rose so high that it seemed as if the water might easily reach us. Farther on, we travelled through stretches of plain covered with orange trees, olives, and feathery palms. Then, as night fell, the numerous seaports became ablaze with lights , while the stars crept out and shone tremulously in the dark blue sky. Yet it was without regret that I watched this fairy picture fade from my eyes, for my heart was set elsewhere.

17/03/2026

Meanwhile Papa was proposing to take me to Jerusalem, but although my natural inclination drew me to visit the places sanctified by our Lord's footsteps, I was weary of earthly pilgrimages. I longed only for the beauties of Heaven, and it was to win them for souls that I pined to become a prisoner as quickly as possible. Alas! before the gates of my hallowed prison should open, I knew that I must continue to struggle and suffer; yet my trust in God did not grow less, and I still hoped to enter at Christmas.
