00:00Pope Francis has been laid to rest at the Basilica of St. Mary Major in Rome,
00:07in a simple underground tomb with just his papal name, Franciscus.
00:12His funeral on Saturday attracted as many as 250,000 people,
00:17rich and poor alike, who came to pay their respects.
00:21We left this morning to assist the funeral of Franciscus,
00:28and we brought the designs of our children who were not here,
00:36who had a pleasure in some way to be present,
00:39because they have always followed us,
00:42they know them at home as a friend, as a son, as a son.
00:51Cardinal Giovanni Battista Ray, who eulogized Pope Francis,
00:55memorialized him as a pope among the people, with an open heart towards everyone.
01:00After the funeral mass on St. Peter's Square,
01:03the pope's coffin was moved to the Basilica of St. Mary Major for a private burial.
01:08Despite the attendance of presidents and princes,
01:11it was prisoners, transgender people, migrants and the poor,
01:15who welcomed his body into the church towards his final resting place.
01:19The pope hoped the ceremony would reflect the priorities of his papacy,
01:24where he aimed to emphasize his role as a mere priest rather than a powerful religious leader.
