(February 14) It was Carnival Sunday and, as she left the church, a dozen hospice companions surrounded Bernardita, who had already told her sister Toñita that she wanted to go to the grotto, but that she did not dare to ask her mother’s permission. Therefore, the companions went to the «jail» to ask permission from their mother, who ended up giving in, saying that they would ask the father’s permission. Her father, who worked very close by, replied that he did not give her permission, but Mr Cazenave, for whom he worked, told him: «Let the little one go. If the one whom he sees carries the rosary, it’s not a bad thing.» And the father reluctantly accepted. They went back to the house and told their mother.
In total, there were about twenty students, divided into two groups. Bernardita was in the lead and ran to get there soon. Upon arrival, they kneeled and began to pray the rosary. At the end of the first ten, Bernardita shouted: «Look, the glow… Look at it. He has the rosary on his right arm. He’s looking at us»24
Bernardita got up and approached the mysterious being and said, «If you come from God, stay!» And he poured holy water on him. That one (Aquéro, she will say in her dialect) smiled, thus manifesting that it came from God’s side
They shook Bernardita, not realizing that she was in ecstasy, and seeing that she wasn’t responding, they freaked out. Juana ran to warn Bernardita’s parents and others ran to Savy’s neighboring mill to come and help them. The miller, Mrs Nicolau, asked her 18-year-old son Antonio for help and they ran to help. Antonio in his statement said the following: They told me: Bernardita is in the grotto of Massabielle. We don’t know what he sees. We can’t get it out of there. Come and help us. Without a hat or jacket, I continued without begging my mother and aunt and, along a bad and narrow path, went down to the grotto. When I arrived I saw three or four poor girls, Toñita Soubirous and Bernardita
We put her in the kitchen and forced her to sit down. The girls had come with us. When he sat down, I asked him, «What do you see in that hole? Do you see anything ugly?» He said, «Oh, no! I see a very beautiful lady. He has a rosary on his arm and hands together
When Bernardita returned to herself from ecstasy at Savy’s mill, she was surprised, as all along she had been in communication with the vision and praying with her the rosary. Soon after, his mother arrived with a rod to hit him and he eded him in front of everyone. The miller, seeing that she was going to hit him, Luisa yelled at him, why are you going to hit him? Your daughter is an angel from heaven. Luisa controlled and started crying. He then took Bernardita by the hand and the two returned to the house together.
