Monks everywhere. Outside a window, barred with woven pattern, Barry saw that it was night. Inside, a church. The monks clustered around a book. A bronze placard on the wall read "Beata Vergine."
  "What time is it?" asked one.
  "What then is time? If no one asks me, I know what it is. If I wish to explain it to him who asks me, I do not know"
  "I think it's break time," said one of the monks. "We've been at it all day."
For the first time, Barry noticed white lights of recording equipment and round headed microphones that he remembered from the Hands Across America video.
