" Truly, yes, to pray with. It would be pleasing to the saints if one used so fine a rosary as this, instead of wearing it as a vain bijou."

"Tunay nga, oo, upang manalangin. Magiging kasiya-siya sa mga banal kung gagamitin ang napakagandang rosaryo na tulad nito, sa halip na isuot ito bilang isang walang saysay na alahas."
