We were standing in a narrow street, by the Tower of Antonio.

"On these stones that are crumbling away," the guide said, "the Saviour sat and rested before taking up the cross.

This is the beginning of the Sorrowful Way, or the Way of Grief." The party took note of the sacred spot, and moved on.

We passed under the "Ecce Homo Arch," and saw the very window from which Pilate's wife warned her husband to have nothing to do with the persecution of the Just Man.

This window is in an excellent state of preservation, considering its great age.
