Fr Raymond Peyret relates the following incident in
his book Marthe Robin: The Cross and the Joy
Near Châteauneuf, France, in the early twentieth century, a young man with his cap pulled down covering his nose saw a priest approaching on the opposite side of the street and started to squawk like a crow. The priest was unflustered, crossed the street, and gave the man a franc note. The young man questioned why, and the priest said when babies cry it means they are hungry and told him to buy some bread, it would taste better than eating a priest.
