Namque inter plura continentiae, humilitatis, doctrinae, orationum, voluntariae paupertatis, et ceterarum virtutum merita, in tantum erat timori Domini subditus, in tantum novissimorum suorum in omnibus operibus suis memor, ut sicut mihi frater quidam de eis qui me in Scripturis erudiebant et erat in monasterio ac magisterio illius educatus, vocabulo Trumberct, referre solebat, si forte legente eo vel aliud quid agente, repente flatus venti maior adsurgeret, continuo misericordiam Domini invocaret, et eam generi humano propitiari rogaret.
For among his manifold merits of abstinence and lowliness, of preaching, of prayer, of wilful poverty and all other virtues, he was so far humbled to the fear of the Lord, so much mindful of his latter end in all his works, that (as a certain brother named Trumbert was wont to tell, one of them that taught me in the Scriptures and was brought up in Chads monastery and government) if perhaps, while he was reading or doing some other thing, there rose any sudden greater blast of wind, by and by would he call on the mercy of the Lord and beseech Him to have pity on mankind.
