Thomas. They are then the Lieutenants of the souls, but I would have no such Lieutenants at my table. I had rather to give them charge to fast for me, then to eat, & had rather have them heerem my Lieutenants. But let us also speak of the winnowings that you have set forth for the third manner of Purgatory, y• which the ancients had and used. I know not whether we use them towards the dead: But I have seen them used towards those that be alive. I have seen them used towards those that be alive. I have seen the priests to wind the women and little children with the platen, missal and corporal cloth in the Mass. But I know not to what end the 1wind can serve for y• souls in Purgatory, but for to blow their fire.
