Excerpt from The Fifth Reader

There once lived in Brittany a poor. Half-witted fellow named Salaun. His father and mother were dead, and there was no one to care for him, save the good monks who taught school there for the love of God, and to whom Salaun went with the other children of the place.

Day after day, with downcast eyes, but with his soul raised to heaven, Salaun walked along the road talking to himself, and repeating over and over again, like a cooing dove, Hail Mary! Hail Mary! And our Blessed Lord heard what his lips did not utter.
