Excerpt from Mare Nostrum: Our Sea a Novel

He lived near the cathedral, and on Sundays and holy days, instead of following the faithful to witness the pompous ceremonials pre sided over by the cardinal-archbishop, used to betake himself with his wife and son to hear mass in San Juan del Hospital, - a little church sparsely attended the rest of the week.
