Back in the 12th century, Hildegard von Bingen wrote a natural history which, in a separate book on stones, outlined the healing powers of various types of stone known at the time. Together with the reference to the lost holdings of the former monastery library, the two stone books in the meadow become symbols of a knowledge that has endured for generations and lives on between the pages despite fires, carelessness and forgetting.
