Cumque ita sine cibo et potu, sine voce et auditu quatriduo perseveraret, quinta demum inlucescente die, quasi de gravi experrectus somno exsurgens resedit; apertisque oculis, vidit circa se choros psallentium simul et flentium fratrum; ac modicum suspirans interrogavit, ubi esset Acca presbyter; qui statim vocatus intravit, et videns eum melius habentem ac loqui iam valentem, flexis genibus gratias egit Deo cum omnibus qui aderant fratribus.
And thus continuing four days without meat and drink, as speechless and past hearing, at length on the fifth day at daybreak he sat up in bed as a man awaked out of a deep sleep; and when his eyes were opened, he saw a company of his brethren about him singing and weeping; and setting a little sigh asked where Acca the priest was; who forthwith being called entered in, and seeing the bishop better amended and now able to speak, fell upon his knees, and gave thanks to God with all the brethren that were present.
