Christina the Astonishing. Lived a long time ago. She was stricken with a seizure. At the age of twenty-two. They took her body in a coffin. To a tiny church in Liege. Where she sprang up from the coffin. Just after the Agnus Dei. She soared up to the rafters. Perched on a beam up there. Cried "The stink of human sin. Is more that I can bear". Christina the Astonishing. Was the most astonishing of all. She prayed balanced on a hurdle. Or curled up into a ball. She fled to remote places. Climbed towers and trees and walls. To escape the stench of human corruption. Into an oven she did crawl. O Christina the Astonishing. Behaved in a terrifying way. She would run wildly through the streets. Jump in the Meusse and swim away. O Christina the Astonishing. Behaved in terrifying manner. Died at the age of seventy-four. In the convent of St Anna.
