Sed ut Dei potentia manifestior appareret, quidquid custodire tentaverat turba, consumitur; quod vero iacens et infirmus defenderat, reserato hospitio sancti viri, expavescens flamma transilivit, ultra citraque desaeviens, et inter globos flammantis incendii, incolume tabernaculum quod habitator inclusus servabat, emicuit.
But that the power of God might appear the plainer, the fire still consumed whatsoever the people sought to save; but what the sick man lying in his bed did defend, that the fire skipped, as being afraid of the holy mans refuge that lay open to it; and both above and beneath fiercely burned without stay, so that in the middle of the flakes and flames of the fire the lodging, that the imprisoned dweller kept, shone forth sound and untouched.
