Young priests wait to see the helicopter taking Pope Benedict XVI from the Vatican in Rome to Castel Gandolfo in the Italian countryside on Thursday.
In historic resignation, Pope *
bids Vatican solemn farewell

MUF Un.

Benedict XVI will
live at Vatican in
retirement
CASTEL GANDOLFO, Italy
(AP) - As bells tolled and the
clock struck 8, the brass-stud-
ded wooden doors swung shut
Thursday at this palace in the
Italian hills, marking an end to
Benedict XVI's papacy and the
start of his final journey as a
"simple pilgrim."
Capping a day of tearful fare-
wells that included an extraordi-
nary pledge of obedience to his
successor, Benedict entered his-
tory as the first pope in 600 years
to resign - leaving the Catholic
Church in unprecedented limbo
and ending a pontificate shaped
by struggles to move beyond
clerical sex abuse scandals and
reawaken Christianity in an
indifferent world.
On Benedict's last day, the
mood was vastly different inside
the Vatican than at Castel Gan-
dolfo, the 17th-century papal
retreat set in the hills south of
Rome, where he will spend the

first two months of his retire-
ment.
At the seat of the popes,
Benedict's staff bade the pontiff
goodbye in scenes of dignified
solemnity, with Swiss Guards in
full regalia and prelates kneel-
ing to kiss his papal ring one last
time.
A livelier atmosphere reigned
in the countryside, with well-
wishers jamming the hilltop
town's main square, shouting
"Viva ii Papa!" and waving the
yellow and white flags of the Holy
See.
Cheers went up as the 85-year-
old Benedict stepped out onto the
palace balcony and, arms out-
stretched, declared his papacy
was nearing the end.
"I am simply a pilgrim begin-
ning the last leg of his pilgrimage
on this Earth," he said. Then giv-
ing a final blessing, he declared:
"Grazie e buona notte" - "Thank
you and good night" in Italian.
It was a remarkable bookend
to a papacy that began on April
19, 2005, with a similarly meek
speech delivered from the loggia
overlooking St. Peter's Square,
where the newly elected Bene-

diet said he was but a "simple
humble worker in the vineyard of
the Lord."
Over his eight-year papacy,
Benedict tried to set the church
on a more traditional course, con-
vinced that all the ills afflicting it
- sexual abuse, dwindling num-
bers of priests and empty pews
- were a result of a misreading of
thereformsofthe Second Vatican
Council.
His successor is likely to follow
in his footsteps, given that the
vast majority of the 115 cardinals
who will elect the nextpope were
appointed by Benedict himself
and share his conservative bent.
For the time being, the gov-
ernance of the church shifts to
Cardinal Tarcisio Bertone, the
camerlengo, or chamberlain, who
along with the College of Cardi-
nals will guide the church and
make plans starting Monday for
the conclave to elect the 266th
leader of the world's 1.2 billion
Catholics.
One of Bertone's first acts
was to lock the papal apartment
inside the Vatican. In another
task steeped in symbolism, he
will ensure that Benedict's papal

ringand seal are destroyed.
Benedict's journey into retire-
ment began with a final audi-
ence with his cardinals, where
he sought to defuse concerns
about his future role and the pos-
sible conflicts arising from hav-
ing both a reigning and a retired
pope living side-by-side inside
the Vatican.
"Among you is also the future
pope, whom I today promise my
unconditional reverence and obe-
dience," Benedict told the cardi-
nals.
Benedict's decision to live at
the Vatican in retirement, wear
the white cassock associated
with the papacy and be called
"emeritus pope" and "Your Holi-
ness," rather than revert back to
his birth name, Joseph Ratzinger,
has deepened concerns about the
shadow he might cast over the
next pope.
Benedict has tried to address
those worries, saying that he will
be "hidden from the world" and
live a life of prayer in retirement.
On Thursday, he took a step fur-
ther with his own public pledge
to place himself entirely under
the authority of the new pope.
