Note 4 — ST. MARGARET OF CORTONA.
Reading edition
Little she cared what became of her, but for the child something must be done. What did she do? She went and put on a sackcloth dress,4 tied about the waist with a rope, and she went to the church at the high mass time; and when mass was over she stood on the altar step, and told all the people she was Margaret of Cortona, who had given so much scandal, and now was come to show her contrition for it.
