“Peter again gave him three groschen, and now he did not allow himself to be led away once more, but fetched them the loaf. Our Lord then inquired if he had no wine, and he said, "Alack, sir, the casks are all empty ! " But the Lord said he was to go down into the cellar, for the best wine was still there. For a long time he would not believe this, but at length he said, " Well, I will go down, but I know that there is none there."”
