I mentioned in my "post" that I felt the confessional scene between William and Jorge was important to me, but i also felt that this scene was important too, as well as full of emotions. The peasant girl was very dirty and didn't speak a word, so we saw much povery displayed here. But the point that you brought up about this scene is very true-I saw that as well. Adso and this girl "make love", but the whole time she says not one word. However, her actions and her strong lusting moves obviously proved to the viewers that words even needed-her body language showed it all.
