Tutto era cambiato durante quella notte. Gli stessi che gettavano i loro mantelli sotto gli zoccoli dell'asino montato dal Maestro, adesso, sputavano, minacciavano coi pugni, esigevano la sua morte. Egli parlava loro di amore, mentre essi cercavano solo dove sfogare l'odio di cui erano ricolmi, come un vaso riempito fino all'orlo.
