:04:02
Trappists! You all want to go there!
A monastery's no rest home.

:04:11
What should I do?
:04:12
Now you're showing sense.
:04:14
If you can't guide others,
how can you judge yourself?

:04:18
You've been given a master ; me!
:04:20
I know it...
:04:21
You were allowed to take holy orders...
:04:23
despite your superior's doubts.
:04:26
I am not totally incapable...
:04:29
...of parish work fitting
my intelligence.

:04:32
Luckily, my health...
:04:34
Health is God's gift.
:04:35
I know its price too well.
:04:37
Your strength and manual skills.
:04:39
suggest you were meant
for a humbler vocation.

:04:43
It's never too late to admit an error.
:04:45
Should you try something else,
:04:47
or return to your plow?
I'm asking, not answering.

:04:51
A man like me is easy to size up.
:04:55
You're being tactful.
:04:57
I'm eager to obey.
Don't keep me in suspense.

:05:01
I know you're impatient.
:05:04
But what you hope I'll say
maybe be too great a temptation.

:05:08
You want my decree.
Will you obey it?

:05:13
I'm not just a crude, ignorant priest,
:05:17
unable to make himself loved.
:05:19
I was a poor seminary student.
:05:23
It took a miracle...
:05:25
to get me admitted to the priesthood.
:05:28
I lack intelligence, memory, diligence.
:05:31
Yet I can't overcome...
:05:32
...my stubbornness.
:05:34
Your submission touches me...
I must have seemed cruel.

:05:39
I'm going to be even more so.
:05:42
Do you know whose hands you've
put yourself in?

:05:45
Please...
:05:47
The hands of a man you don't respect!
:05:52
I seem to live like a wealthy layman.
:05:55
You're ashamed of my leisurely ways,
admit it.

:05:58
You know fools praise my experience...
