The scribe room...
where our experts copy
and illuminate manuscripts.
The illumination is magnificent.
And the calligraphy!
The repair room...
where we strengthen and sew bindings.
- Is this for sewing the bindings?
- Yes, that's right.
- And the, uh, press?
- Yes, the press.
Yes, we make our own ink...
and have not changed the
formula in five centuries.
And this is our biblioteca.
This is where we preserve
our ancient books...
and, uh, priceless records.
Oh.
You are surprised to find them chained?
I can understand.
But to remove a book is strictly forbidden.
- But surely no one would dare.
- Well, who knows?
Once a rare book collector acted
rather strangely in this cell...
and we were compelled to summon
the civil police from Seville...
to investigate him.
The Mazarin Bible...
the first work of Gutenberg printed in 1450.
- I thought it was in two volumes.
- You're right, Brother Anthony.
Christopher Columbus's son
borrowed the second volume...
The books and, uh, records are listed.
- You're welcome at all times.
He lost no time stealing
ammonia from the infirmary...
and milk and meal from the kitchen.
He mixed a solution and tried it out.
He had to make sure he could remove the ink.
the page with pumice...
to smooth the irritated grain.
That night he gathered his equipment
and hurried to the biblioteca...
to forge the Peralta
grant in the 1748 volume.
This was his first major catastrophe.
For months he practiced ancient penmanship.
For months he made attempts
to enter the biblioteca...
while the others were asleep.
But he failed.
One day, however...
he conceived a simple
but most effective plan...
biblioteca where he could work.
In his cell, he deliberately
left a sample ofhis penmanship.
- Brother Anthony, did you write this?
- Yes, Father.
I'm assigning you to the library
- You've been here three years.
You're a hard worker, but
- But, Father, I - - I
suggest you go to the library.
Yes, Father.
And this is our biblioteca...
where we preserve our ancient
books and priceless records.
- To remove one of the
books - - Brother Anthony.
Yes, Father. The books
and documents are listed.
Will you get the land grant
records of 1748, please?
Yes, the binding must be repaired.
I wonder what condition the other copy is in.
No, you may keep the keys.
Brother Gregory is ill,
but will be well tomorrow.
