Et quia nullatenus ad orandum surgere, non facile ad explendum solitae psalmodiae cursum linguam vocemve poterat levare, didicit vir prudens affectu religionis dictante, per singulas diurnae sive nocturnae orationis horas aliquos ad se fratrum vocare, quibus psalmos consuetos duobus in choris resonantibus, et ipse cum eis quatinus poterat psallendo, quod per se solum nequiverat, eorum iuvamine suppleret.
And because he could in no wise rise to pray, nor without difficulty give utterance or lift up his voice to fulfil the course of the regular psalmody, this wise man, taught of his love of religion, accustomed himself, at the several hours of the daily and nightly prayers, to summon unto him some of the brethren which should sing the appointed psalms antiphonally, that so he himself singing with them so far as he might, should by their aid fulfil what he could not accomplish of himself.
