Summary

Description
English: The Antigua Basílica de Nuestra Señora de Guadalupe and well — as in México, from "Six Months in Mexico".
  • A little green plaza filled with tall trees, beautiful flowers, and flowing fountains, separates the church of the Virgin of Guadalupe from another, which, in order to have some attraction, boasts of a well in the vestibule, which is ever boiling up its muddy water. The water cures any disease, so they say, and at any time a crowd is found around its magic brim filling jars, bottles, and pitchers to take home, or supping from the copper bowl that is chained to the iron bars that cover the well. Very few can suppress the look of disgust when they try to swallow the vile stuff with the all-healing qualities."
Français : Gravure de la chapelle du petit puits (capilla del pocito) dans le sactuaire mariale de Guadalupe.
