On The Way To Jerusalem (Live) - Laurie Anderson[00:00:00]
There was a devout nun in the XVth century[00:00:12]
Who decided to make a pilgrimage to Jerusalem;[00:00:18]
And she belonged to an order that wore[00:00:22]
Bags over their heads [00:00:25]
And the mother superior told the nun that if she[00:00:28]
Walked through the countryside with a bag on[00:00:31]
Her head she would scare people [00:00:34]
But the nun insisted [00:00:39]
So the mother superior allowed to her to walk[00:00:41]
Around and around the cloister [00:00:43]
Every day for three years until she covered the[00:00:45]
Equivalent distance to the Holy City [00:00:49]
At the end of her journey the nun was so[00:00:55]
Exhausted that she collapsed [00:00:58]
A doctor was called [00:01:02]
After examining her he announced that she was[00:01:04]
Too weak to make the return trip [00:01:09]
The nun died shortly after[00:01:14]
