midnight
Ah ! You have stolen a midnight mass from Me ... . Oh , yes you did ! You will pay for your sin three hundred times over , in the proper place , and you will enter paradise only when you will have celebrated three hundred midnight masses , in your own chapel , in front of all those who have sinned with you , through your most grievous fault ... . Well , that 's that , the true story of Dom Balaguère as told in the land of the olive . The chateau of Trinquelage is no more , but the chapel still remains in a copse of green oaks at the top of Mount Ventoux . Now , it has a wind-blown , ramshackle door and grass grows over the threshold .
