Black Death in Piombino, but only a few deaths in Milan.
Text originalOriginal text
Il detto morbo s'atachò a Pionbino, inperochè vi venne cierti Genovesi di quelle maledette galee, e morivi e' 3 quarti de le persone in Pionbino; per tanto si fu per abandonare. Queste maledette galee de' Genovesi venivano e aveano aiutato a' Saraceni e al Turco a pigliare la città di Romania che era de' Cristiani che non féro i Turchi, e per questo si tenea che Dio avea mandato tanta mortalità a i detti Genovesi e a' Cristiani e in Turchia, e morì in Saracina e' tre quarti e così de' Cristiani. A Milano morì poca gente, inperochè morì 3 fameglie, le quali le case loro furo murate l'uscia e le finestre, chè nissuno v'entrasse.
Text translationEnglish translation of the text
The said disease spread to Piombino, because certain Genoese from those accursed galleys came there, and three quarters of the people in Piombino died; for this reason the town was almost abandoned. These accursed Genoese galleys had come after helping the Saracens and the Turks to capture the city of Romania, which had belonged to the Christians and which the Turks had not previously taken. Because of this, it was believed that God had sent such mortality upon the said Genoese and upon the Christians and also in the lands of the Turks; and among the Saracens three quarters died, and likewise among the Christians. In Milan, however, few people died, because three families died there whose houses were sealed up—both doors and windows were walled up—so that no one could enter them.
