00:32His funeral on Saturday attracted as many as 250,000 people, rich and poor alike, who came to pay their respects.
00:40Siamo partiti questa mattina per poter assistere al funerale di Francesco, del Papa Francesco, e abbiamo portato i disegni dei nostri bambini che non sono venuti e che avevano piacere in qualche modo di essere presenti perché comunque lo hanno sempre seguito, comunque in casa lo conoscono come amico, come anche nonno che si ascolta.

01:20After the funeral mass on St. Peter's Square, the Pope's coffin was moved to the Basilica of St. Mary Major for a private burial.
01:29Despite the attendance of presidents and princes, it was prisoners, transgender people, migrants and the poor who welcomed his body into the church towards his final resting place.
01:40The Pope hoped the ceremony would reflect the priorities of his papacy, where he aimed to emphasize his role as a mere priest rather than a powerful religious leader.
01:49It was a deeply moving funeral service that reflected the widespread love and respect for Pope Francis on this historic day.
02:04Cardinal Ray, who presided over the funeral said that Pope Francis gave everything until the end, touching the minds and hearts of many.
02:12He also said that he devoted himself to the most marginalized on earth.
02:16Now, despite being a global event with over 180 international delegations attending, it maintained the simple and modest style that defined his pontificate.
02:28As Pope Francis is laid to rest, world leaders, Catholics from around the world bid farewell to a man who set a moral example and tried to change the church from within.
02:41Regardless of whom the conclave will elect as the next pontiff, some of the changes that Pope Francis introduced when it comes to defining the role of the Pope are seen as irreversible.
02:54Pope Francis envisioned a Pope, not as a monarch, but as a humble pastor.
