Vatican City.-<\/strong> The new pope<\/strong>, whose name will be known shortly, has moved from the Sistine Chapel<\/strong> to the so-called Room of Tears<\/strong>, in order to get dressed to appear to the world on the balcony of the basilica of St. Peter’s Square.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is foreseen in the ritual for the election of the new pontiff<\/strong>, which was reported at 18:08 hours (16:08 GMT) by means of the white smoke.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

The new pope has obtained at least two-thirds of the votes of the 133 cardinal electors (which are 89) <\/strong>and after that count, he will have accepted the commission and decided what name he wants to be called.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

From the Sistine Chapel, the chosen one is invited to go to the ‘Room of Tears’, where the vestments that he can begin to wear have been prepared for days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The room is known by that name because historically it is the place where the chosen one could remain calm for a moment <\/strong>and, eventually, pray and cry to relieve the accumulated tension.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In that chamber there are three long habits or white cassocks of different sizes depending on the height of the chosen one, as well as four short vestments like surplices, a mozzetta or tippet of purple color and a purple stole with golden decoration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Also, if you wish, you can choose between shoes of different sizes, sashes, a cord, and a golden cross, all arranged there. Then you will receive the homage of the rest of the cardinals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It falls to the protodeacon<\/strong>, the French Cardinal Dominique Mamberti<\/strong>, to first appear on the basilica’s balcony to announce who the chosen one is and the name with which he will govern the Church.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After the new pope will address those present in St. Peter’s<\/strong> and will give the urbi et orbi blessing. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
