They will Never See Their Likes Again

It was at Chartres that men could be seen bodily dragging carts laden with stone, wood, provisions and all the supplies necessary for building the church whose towers were under construction. Those who were not present to witness these wonders will never see their likes again, neither here, or in any other country. Humility and pain were seen everywhere, people repented from their sins and forgot insults, in every direction there was groaning and tears. Men and women too, could be seen dragging themselves on their knees through the boggy marshes, fiercely beating their breasts and begging heaven for mercy, and all of this while numerous miracles were drawing forth songs and shouts of joy.
