Amino in Scherzo , words by Umberto Eco

In the begining was the Word and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.This was begining with God and the duty of every faithful monk would be to repeat every day with chanting humility the one never-changing event whose incontrovertible truth can be asserted.But we see now through a glass darkly, and the truth , before it is revealed to all, face to face, we see in fragments ( alas, how illegible) in the error of the world, so we must spell out its faithful signals even when they seem obscure to us and as if amalgamated with a will wholly bent on evil. from The Name of the Rose- by Umberto Eco
