- What does it mean?
- That the hunchback, undoubtedly...

:29:05
was once a heretic.
:29:08
"Penitenziagite" was the rallying
cry of Dolcinites.

:29:12
Dolcinites? Who were they?
:29:16
Those who believed
in the poverty of Christ.

:29:18
So do we, Franciscans.
:29:21
But they also declared that
everyone must be poor.

:29:23
So they slaughtered the rich.
:29:28
You see, Adso...
:29:30
the step between ecstatic vision
and sinful frenzy...

:29:35
is all too brief.
:29:38
So, could he not have killed
the translator?

:29:43
No. Fat bishops and wealthy priests...
:29:46
were more to the taste
of the Dolcinites...

:29:49
not a specialist of Aristotle.
:29:52
But yes, you're right.
We must keep an open mind.

:30:01
We're very fortunate to have such
snowy ground here.

:30:05
It is often the parchment on which
the criminal, unwillingly...

:30:08
writes his autograph.
:30:10
Now, what do you read from these
footprints here?

:30:13
They're twice as deep as the
others, Master.

:30:17
Good! And thus we may conclude...
:30:21
That the man was very heavy.
:30:23
Precisely! And why was
he very heavy?

:30:28
Because... he was very fat?
:30:32
Or because he was carrying
another man.

:30:38
Let us commit the autograph
of this sole to our memory.

:30:45
But the footprints lead away
from the jar, in this direction.

:30:51
Adso, you're discounting
the possibility...

:30:53
that the man was walking
backwards, dragging the body thus...

:30:57
hence the furrows
created by the heels.
