Est autem locus idem sepulcri tumba lignea in modum domunculi facta coopertus, habente foramen in pariete, per quod solent hi qui causa devotionis illo adveniunt, manum suam immittere, ac partem pulveris inde adsumere: quam cum in aquas miserint atque has infirmantibus iumentis sive hominibus gustandas dederint, mox infirmitatis ablata molestia, cupitae sospitatis gaudia redibunt.
Now the same place of the sepulchre is covered with a wooden tomb made like a little house, having a hole in the wall, at which they that come thither for devotions sake are wont to put in their hand and take to them some of the dust therefrom: the which they put into water and then give it to taste to sick beasts or men, whereby the grief of their sickness is anon taken away, and they will return to their joyful desired health.
