Itorero na Leta ku Rugamba
rwarakomeje rumara imyaka myinshi. Faransisiko yabaye hagati y’Abanyaroma n’ubugorozi,
akajya yihanganira uburakari bw’abapadiri ikindi gihe akabuhagarika. Berquin yafunzwe
inshuro eshatu afungishijwe n’abategetsi bo ku ruhande rwa Papa, ariko akajya afunguzwa
n’umwami kuko yamukundiraga ubuhanga bwe n’imico ye itunganye bigatuma yanga ko
arengana azira ubugome bw’abayobozi bakuru b’itorero.
Berquin yaburiwe inshuro nyinshi ibyerekeye akaga kari kamwugarije mu Bufaransa,
kandi bamugiraga inama yo kugera ikirenge mu cy’abari baraboneye umutekano mu guhunga
babyihitiyemo. Uwitwaga Erasime wagiraga amagambo make ariko akagendana n’ibihe ngo
arengere inyungu ze, nubwo yari umunyabwenge, ntabwo yabashije kugira ugukomera mu
mico mbonera bituma ubuzima n’icyubahiro bicishwa bugufi kubera ukuri. Yandikiye
Berquin ati : “Saba kujya guhagararira igihugu mu mahanga; jya mu Budage uzahakore
ingendo. Uzi neza Beda n’abandi nka we, ko ari igikoko gifite imitwe igihumbi, gicira
ubumara impande zose. Abanzi bawe ntibagira ingano. Nubwo umurimo wawe waba mwiza
kuruta uwa Yesu Kristo, ntibazakureka ngo ugende batakurimburanye ubugome bukomeye.
Ntiwishingikirize cyane ku kurindwa n’umwami. Mu bibaho byose, ntunshire mu kaga ndetse
n’ishami ryigisha iby’Iyobokamana.” 224
Ariko uko ibyago byarushagaho gukomera, ni ko ubutwari bwa Berquin nabwo
bwiyongeraga. Aho gukurikiza inama za politiki kandi zo kwirengera yahawe na Erasme,
Berquin yiyemeje gufata ingamba zikaze kurutaho. Ntiyibandaga gusa ku kurengera ukuri,
ahubwo yajyaga yamagana n’amakosa. Ikirego cy’ubuhakanyi yaregwaga n’abambari ba
Roma, yajyaga akibagerekaho ari bo. Abamurwanyaga babishishikariye cyane kandi
bamwanga urunuka bari abantu bize bafite impamyabumenyi z’ikirenga ndetse n’abapadiri
bo mu ishami ryigishaga iyobokamana muri Kaminuza nkuru y’i Paris, yari imwe mu bifite
ububasha buhanitse bw’itorero haba mu mujyi mukuru ndetse no ku gihugu cyose. Mu
nyandiko z’abo bahanga b’ikirenga Berquin yakuyemo ingingo cumi n’ebyiri yavugiye mu
ruhame ko “zinyuranyije na Bibiliya, kandi ko zirimo ubuyobe;” maze asaba umwami ko ari
we waca urubanza muri izo mpaka.
Umwami ntiyatindiganyije guhuza abo banyambaraga n’abo babavuguruzaga buzuye
ubwenge n’ubushishozi, maze anezezwa no kubona uburyo bwo gucisha bugufi ubwibone
bw’abo bapadiri birataga, bityo asaba abari mu ruhande rwa Roma gushyigikirisha Bibiliya
ibyo bemera. Bari bazi neza ko iyo ntwaro itagira icyo ibamarira. Gushyira abantu mu nzu
z’imbohe, kwica urubozo no gutwika ni zo ntwaro bari bazi gukoresha. Ubu noneho ibintu
byari bihindutse, bibonye bagiye kugwa mu rwobo bari bariringiye ko bazarohamo Berquin.
Barumiwe maze bashakishaka uburyo batoroka.
“Muri icyo gihe ishusho ya Bikira Mariya yari ku ruhande rw’inzira imwe yarangijwe
icibwa igice kimwe.” Habayeho imivurungano ikomeye mu mujyi. Abantu benshi
bahururiraga kureba iyo shusho maze bakarirana umubabaro. Umwami nawe byaramubabaje
cyane. Ayo yabaye amahirwe abapadiri bari babonye kugira ngo bisubize isura nziza, maze
