The Vatican has released video of Pope Francis being laid out in an open coffin ahead of the Confirmation of the Death of the Pontiff ceremony. The pontiff’s body had been placed in the coffin late Monday, with Cardinal Kevin Farrell, the Vatican camerlengo — the “chamberlain” who essentially acts as head of the Vatican between the end of a papacy and the start of the next — reading the official declaration of death aloud in an intimate ceremony.
