    (continued from previous page)
    Seeing the poor child in such a horrible condition Mary took pity on it.
    She told the woman to warm "some water" to bathe the Holy Infant. The woman being obliging obeyed. When she had the Holy Infant washed she told the woman to bathe her own child in the water. The moment she did so the skin was as clear and pure as that of the Child Jesus.
    Of course when the robber saw the child cured he not only gave them shelter for the night but escorted them part of the journey on their journey to Egypt.
