Garcia Rodrigo speaks of the barbarians of the nineteenth century who desecrated the monastery of St. Thomas, and whose “revolutionary hammers” smashed so many of the sepulchral and other marbles. He turns the medal about for us when he pours his fierce invective upon anti-religious fanaticism and speaks of these broken marbles as evidences of “perversity, intolerance, and want of enlightenment.”[271] The anti-religious fanaticism and intolerance must be admitted. But it must be admitted that they are the inevitable fruits that fanaticism and intolerance produce. Men reap as they sow. And what but thistles shall be yielded by the seed of thistles? The same author inveighs against the political fanaticism of Spanish Liberalism, which in the hour of reaction sought fiercely for the bones of the first Grand Inquisitor. He denounces it indignantly for disturbing the peace of sepulture. In the main we share his feelings; and yet can we avoid perceiving here a measure of retributive justice? Can we fail to see in this fanatical act the vengeance of humanity for the almost obscene violation of a thousand graves by that same Grand Inquisitor’s fanaticism? He was laid to rest in the chapel of his monastery, and his tomb bore the following simple inscription: HIC JACET REVERENDUS P. F. THOMAS DE TURRE-CREMATA PRIOR SANCTÆ CRUCIS, INQUISITOR GENERALIS HUJUS DOMUS FUNDATOR. OBIIT ANNO DOMINI MCDLXLVIII, DIE XVI SEPTEMBRIS.[272] But his work survived him. His spirit--through his enactments--continued for three centuries after his death to be the guiding spirit of the Inquisition, executor of the stern testament he left inscribed upon the walls of his monastery-- PESTEM FUGAT HÆRETICAM.
