We look from the north to the south transept of the great Romanesque cathedral. A number of bishops have just entered, bringing up the rear of the procession, following a glass case containing reliquaries. Banners at the head of the procession are already at the far side of the South transept, where the giant censer, named Botafumeiro, is swinging, suspended from the dome.
