Aegean Sea and the monks go up and
down from the shores in baskets
worked on pulleys by their brethren.
So sacred is the peninsula that no

All the monks held court Go try her,

cat before finding ont whether it was
eligible for admittance.
some of the monasteries are very
strict and never allow the inmates to
