Perhaps you will scarcely credit it, and yet it is true. It is now some seventeen or eighteen years ago[^2] that I was in company with university professors, and some particularly gifted poets. Among the professors, there were also some theologians, from the theological faculty of the university in question. They were Catholics. Now, in this company, the following was said, not without foundation, and in all seriousness, that one of these theologians, a very erudite man, would not go out at night any more, because he believed that the Freemasons would be on the loose. The man in question represented a major department; but he did not tell the story, a colleague did. He went on to relate that while he was in Rome, a number of monks of a particular order—there would have been eleven, twelve or thirteen of them—had vouched on oath for the [truth of the] following event.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"20.

In dieser Gesellschaft wurde nun allen Ernstes folgendes erzählt. Von einem dieser Theologen, der ein sehr gelehrter Herr war, ging das nicht unbegründete Gerücht, daß er abends nicht mehr ausgehe, weil er glaube, daß da die Freimaurer herumgehen. Der Betreffende vertrat ein ausgebreitetes Fach. Aber nicht er war der Erzähler, sondern ein anderer. Der erzählte nun, daß während seiner Anwesenheit in Rom eine Anzahl von Mönchen eines bestimmten Ordens — es waren elf, zwölf oder dreizehn — sich anheischig gemacht haben, folgendes Geschehen zu beeiden.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":149,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/93/1906-01-02/p005"}],"english":["GA 93/1906-01-02/p005"],"method":"length","confidence":"high","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":149,"en_words":161,"ratio":1.08,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"proposed","verified":false},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":1.23,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":13461,"original_word_count":10911,"may_be_abridged":false},"witness_quality":{"translator":{"scope":"unit","status":"recorded","translator":"John M.
