To join Milan Renzo no particular problems:
enough money to get a quick consent of the guard. If out of town what sad campaign, part of the entire arid and uncultivated, in the city are impressive silence and the distressing signs of the plague, as a destructive power that overwhelms everything, leaving behind corpses and rags. About Renzo to reach the main house of Don Ferrante searching for his Lucia. It has no general indications that with him. A passerby, who with good education requests information, it walks away with bad grace with eyes bulging and shouldering and threatening with a knotty stick, it found an anointed king. Renzo's attention is then drawn from the invocation of a woman surrounded by her children and closed in and seized the house from the outside considering it a carrier of plague, administrators had closed, as is done for the quarantine and had forgotten . Likely to die of hunger. Renzo gives her a little bread at its disposal: it shall be responsible to warn someone. Shortly after he met a priest who ends up confessing to a patient. Entrusted to him and the woman asks him about the location of the house of Don Ferrante. But as it flows through the neighborhoods of the city, from the peripheral to those of the center, Renzo encounters horrific scenes of suffering and death: the stench of dead bodies everywhere, visions of solitude and abandonment, locked all the doors of the road, all rags, and signs of a gradual barbarism of the minds and costumes. Renzo when coming to town, it had the plague lost two thirds of the population. The streets were deserted: the few who walked the need for taking all precautions to avoid infection and to avoid encounters with the fabled spreaders. Wagons were driven by Monatti for the collection of sick or dead bodies. At monatto a poor mother delivers the dead body of his daughter: she abandons the car in recommending that you let it. Shortly After facing a balcony with a boom in 'other child, she also marked by fever. Renzo won the commotion starts toward the house looking for: the window overlooking a woman who tells him that Lucy is not there, which was taken to hospital. And nothing else responds to Renzo, who wanted more precise information and kept his hand on the hammer of the undecided door, the clutching and twisting. The gesture did not escape to a woman passer-by, a sort of witch who holds him up to the crowd as infector. Caught in the middle of the crowd Renzo first threat with a knife, then jump on a bandwagon Monatti passing by. Monatti I take him under their protection: the crowd dissolves in discharging their anger impotent gestures that threaten yet the alleged infector. Renzo on that wagon now finds itself in the most shocking and vile forms of plague and not just the dead bodies thrown on wagons to give the impression of something hellish, but also the Monatti who indulge in a sort of sadistic satisfaction the many people who die canzonacce and sing and drink and give some form of diabolical orgy. One of them is a poor untorello Renzo, one that certainly can not be an anointed king. I do not have the second monatto the fierce conditions. Now I'm the leper: Renzo thanks and goodbye. Within the military hospital that was struck was the crowd of patients, on whom the plague, even if they survived, leaving sometimes frightening signs of degradation. The group is most striking is that of insanity, of dazed. A sudden scene is that of a horse with a dome on its back a rider, a leper mad: running behind the Monatti: then wraps everything in a cloud of dust.
