medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture

 
In any case, I presume even our medieval people didn't think dead children would be resurrected at age 33! ... (though nothing would suprise me...)
 
This is EXACTLY the point made in "Pearl"!  The Father encounters in a dream /vision his daughter who died as a child but the woman in his vision is an adult. He comments on this and the woman tells him, yes, it is so; she is his daughter.

Still looking for the text!
