And now the altar with its covers - one red, the other white - was placed...
in front of the Crucifix of the Blessed Virgin's own oratory.
Peter here celebrated the Holy Mass with the same ceremonies as I had seen him first observe in the church at the Pool of Bethsaida. Tapers [kaarsen], not lamps, were burning on the altar. Mary was in a sitting posture on her couch during the whole celebration. Peter was vested in the large mantle and the pallium, whose colors glanced from white to red.
