Courts for cowards were erected, Churches built to please the priest.
POINT IX THE DOWNFALL OF HOLY CHURCH.
IN the year of 1460, Revel was governed by a General, whose name was John of Mengden ; a worthy old man, who loved his glass of wine, and had the gout ; for wine and the gout are sister's children. It was his custom to ride out occasionally on a black horse down to the shores of the Baltic, whence he continued his way to a convent of nuns consecrated to St. Bridget. This nunnery, which wa...s called Marianthal, was situated about a mile from the town, and its ruins are inhabited by owls and ravens.
On one of these excursions he was accompanied by the Lord Marshal, Gothard of Plettenberg.
As they approached the convent wall, the Marshal's horse became suddenly restive. " Have you heard, " said he, " the strange stories of the subterraneous pas- sage, and that it winds in intricate mazes round the cloister?" " No ;" replied John of Mengden, "but I should like to hear them over a bottle ; you shall re- late them to me in the evening.
