SAINT ANTHONY: HELP ME, O MY GOD! (SAINT-ANTOINE: AU SECOURS, MON DIEU!)

CAIN AND ABEL

SPIDER

IN THE SHADOWS ARE PEOPLE, WEEPING AND PRAYING, SURROUNDED BY OTHERS WHO ARE EXHORTING THEM (DANS L'OMBRE DES GENS PLEURENT ET PRIENT ENTOURÉS D'AUTRES QUI LES EXHORTENT)

DAY APPEARS AT LAST...AND IN THE VERY DISK OF THE SUN SHINES THE FACE OF JÉSUS CHRIST (LE JOUR ENFIN PARAÎT...ET DANS LE DISQUE MÊME DU SOLEIL, RAYONNE LA FACE DU JESUS-CHRIST)

... AND BOUND HIM FOR A THOUSAND YEARS

AND ANOTHER ANGEL CAME OUT OF THE TEMPLE WHICH IS IN HEAVEN, AND HE ALSO HAVING A SHARP SICKLE

...AND HIS NAME THAT SAT ON HIM WAS DEATH

AND A LARGE BIRD, DESCENDING FROM THE SKY, HURLED ITSELF AGAINST THE TOPMOST POINT OF HER HAIR (ET UN GRAND OISEAU QUI DESCEND DU CIEL, VIENT S'ABATTRE SUR LE SOMMET DE SA CHEVELURE)

AND THERE FELL A GREAT STAR FROM HEAVEN, BURNING AS IT WERE A LAMP
