Princess Mathilde is one of the few
Catholas who are permitted to eat meat
during f-~ot by a special decree of the
pope. This disF----1on was accorded TO
her under peculiar circumstances. When
the queen of Westphalia, the mother of
Princess Mathilde, once paid a visit to
Pope Plus IX. at the Vatican, the pope
had a special ''bull' drawn up for her
benefit, allowing her to be exempt from
fasting for the rest OF her life. "Your
holiness will pardon me-" said the queen,
but / am entitled to eat meat at all
times, even without your holiness permiS-
sion. for am a Protestant"
The pope smiled and said: well. then
/ will transfer the permission to your
daughter Mathilde." This was done, and
the order is carried out TO this day.
