Verum qualiscumque fuerit ipse, nos hoc de illo certum tenemus, quia reliquit successores magna continentia ac divino amore regularique institutione insignes: in tempore quidem summae festivitatis dubios circulos sequentes, utpote quibus longe ultra orbem positis nemo synodalia paschalis obseryantiae decreta porrexerat: tantum ea quae in propheticis, evangelicis et apostolicis literis discere poterant pietatis et castitatis opera diligenter observantes.
But yet what manner of man so ever he was, we know this of him for a surety, that he left successors, men that excelled in continency and love of God and practice of religious life: in observing in deed the time of the high feast of Easter they followed uncertain cycles, and no marvel, considering that, being men set so far removed from the rest of the world, no man sent unto them the decrees made in synods for the keeping thereof: they diligently observed only such works of devotion and chaste conversation as they could learn in the Prophets, the Gospels and in the Apostles writings.
