At ille: Obsecro, inquit, ut dicas quod erat canticum illud laetantium quod audivi, venientium de caelis super oratorium hoc, et post tempus redeuntium ad caelos? Respondet ille: Si vocem carminis audisti, et caelestes supervenire coetus cognovisti, praecipio tibi in nomine Domini, ne hoc cuiquam ante meum obitum dicas.
Then quoth the other: I pray you tell me what was that song which I heard of that joyful company descending from heaven upon this oratory, and after a time returning to heaven again? The bishop answereth and saith: If thou hast heard the voice of the song and understood the coming of the heavenly company, I command you in the name of the Lord to tell no man hereof before my death.
