The altar was draped in black, and Mass for the Dead was sung; and all the things that Waldo would need in the house of his exile, from the flint and iron which gave fire to the harp which should give solace, were solemnly blessed and delivered to him.  Next he was warned not to approach the dwellings of men, or to wash in running streams, or to handle the ropes of draw-wells, or to drink from the cups of wayside springs.  He was forbidden the highways, and when he went abroad a clapper must give token of his coming and going.  Nothing that might be used by others should he touch except with covered hands.
