Quotation Deinde post circulum annorum, suggerente Spiritu sancto, apellare et videre sedem apostoli Petri et apostolorum principis, adhuc inattritam viam genti nostrae temptare in cor adolescentis supradicti ascendit et ab ea omnem nodum maculae solvendum sibi credens et beatitudinem benedictionis accipiendam.
Translation After the lapse of a few years, it came into the heart of this same young man, by the promptings of the Holy Spirit, to pay a visit to the see of the Apostle Peter, the chief of the Apostles, and to attempt a road hitherto untrodden by any of our race. By so doing he believed that he would cleanse himself from every blot and stain and receive the joy of the divine blessing (Trans. Colgrave, p. 9)
