**********************************************************************

.. XLVIII QUEEN RADEGUNDA AS A NUN
Adhuc monachabus omnibus soporantibus calceamenta tergens
et unguens, retransmittebat per singulas.

.. Nam et reliquo tempore praeter dies paschales ac summae
festivitatis, donec infirmitas permisit, in cinerem ac
cilicium semper vitam duxit austeram, prius se levans ut
psalleret quam congregatio surrexisset.

.. Nam de officiis monasterialibus nihil sibi placuit nisi prima
serviret, et ipsa se castigabat si bonum post alteram ageret.

.. Ergo suis vicibus scopans monasterii plateas simul et angulos,
quicquid erat foedum purgans, et sarcinas quas alii horrent
videre non abhorrebat evehere.

.. Ligna supportans bracchiis, focum flatibus et forcipibus
admonens, cadens nec laesa se retrahens, extra suam hebdomadam
infirmantibus serviens, ipsa cibos decoquens, aegrotis facies
abluens, ipsa calidum porrigens, visitabat quos fovebat, ieiuna
rediens cellulam.

.. Illud quoque quis explicet quanto fervore excitata ad
coquinam concursitabat, suam faciens septimanam?

.. Denique nulla monacharum nisi ipsa de posticio, quantum
ligni opus erat, sola ferebat in sarcina.

.. Aquam de puteo trahebat et dispensabat per vascula.

.. Holus purgans, legumen lavans, flatu focum vivificans; et
ut decoqueret escas satagebat exaestuans, vasa de foco ipsa
levans, discos lavans et inferens.

.. Hinc consummatis conviviis ipsa vascula diluens, purgans
nitide coquinam, quicquid erat lutulentum ferebat foras in
locum designatum.

.. Humilitate sanctissima pedes lavans et osculans, et adhuc
omnes prostrata deprecabatur veniam neglegentia pro commissa.
