Presented as a translation of a priest’s old Latin manuscript, this short novel tells of Richard Raynal, a young hermit living in contemplation in the English woods. Commanded by a word from God, he walks to London, hears Mass at St. Pancras, speaks with an anchoress at Westminster and insists on delivering his message to King Henry VI.
