946. The spirit is then whirled around with something filthy, as if it were arms, stretched out and immovable; they are not arms, but only rags, somewhat white. The body, being stretched out in this way and continually rotated, is carried towards heaven, and, that he may be struck to the inmosts with shame, it is proclaimed before all that he is of such a quality. Thus he must become a supplicant and must beg for pardon. What he must say in his supplication is dictated to him.
