Las campanas de las iglesias tocaban a misa y vi un gran número de escolares pasar junto a mí de forma apresurada, pulcros y bien vestidos; dos pequeños grupos entraron escoltados por unos monjes en las iglesias, que eran muy antiguas y no presentaban ornamento alguno en la fachada, salvo las estatuas que alojaban unos nichos —santos con los rasgos borrados por el paso del tiempo—, cuyas piedras reparadas sin duda habían padecido los frecuentes terremotos que asolan esta región.
