"Good! Columbus, this agreement is for you! The Almighty bears witness!"
After hearing the reply, Father Talavera handed the agreement to a wildly excited Columbus with a blank expression. Then, he lowered his gaze, abstaining from watching Columbus sign, merely reciting a sacred Latin scripture.
"In quo habemus redemptionem per sanguinem eius remissionem peccatorum secundum divitias gratiae eius, quae superabundavit in nobis in omni sapientia et prudentia!..."
"Eh? The first chapter of the Book of Ephesians?... Through His blood, we have obtained redemption in Him, the forgiveness of sins according to the riches of His grace. This grace is generously bestowed upon us with all wisdom and prudence!... Tsk tsk, what is God's grace? Talavera has layers to his words!..."
Financial Advisor Sir Luis blinked, glanced at Columbus engrossed in signing, then at Talavera reciting scripture, his face reflecting a thoughtful expression, yet he said nothing.
