    whom he used go to Mass was a sinful man. One Sunday as this man was on the road. When all the people had gone to Mass he met a stranger. He and the stranger walked for some distance. After a while the stranger asked the other man to show him a spring well, he did so and they both drank an amount of water. when they had finished drinking they followed up the stream and they found that it was running through the carcase of a dog.
