After that he recovered well, and did not remember his vow except from the report of the said friends, and he had neither approved nor endorsed this. He asks that, in so far as a vow of this kind be changed into other works of piety, he should not deign to command a special grace. Let it be special and pronounced. Francis the reigning bishop of Anagni. (Translation: Carina Damm)
