Nam exsurgens ab oratione, priusquam exiret de loco, petitae lucis gratiam recepit: et quae famularum manibus adducta fuerat, ipsa libero pedum incessu domum laeta reversa est; quasi ad hoc solummodo lucem amitteret temporalem, ut quanta sanctos Christi lux in caelis, quae gratia virtutis possideret, sua sanatione demonstraret.
For rising up from her prayer, before she went out of the place she recovered the benefit of the sight that she sought: and she that had been led thither by the hands of waiting-maids returned home joyfully, walking freely on her feet by herself; so that it might seem that she lost the light of this world only for this end, that she might shew by her healing how great the light and what grace of mighty working is that Christs saints have in heaven.
