The advocate brushed it aside. "Don’t give it a second thought. We really have enough evidence. There are several spontaneous cures-several cases of instantaneous recovery from illness caused by the intercession of the Beatus. They’re simple, matter of fact, and well documented. They’re what cases for canonization are built on. Of course they lack the poetry of this story, but I’m almost glad it’s unfounded-glad for your sake. The devil’s advocate would have crucified you, you know."
