Catalog Description: The monks are being armed against the enemies of the church, and Cardinal de Guise is looking on and conversing with the officers. The monks seem to be poor recruits, and make an awkward squad. For some of them life has been so empty that even danger cannot arouse them; and there are others whole "warfare is not of this world," and who have found much in life that is not to be won by fighting.
