Text translationEnglish translation of the text

In the same year, on the 15th day of May, a very great mortality began in Rimini, and afterward spread through the surrounding countryside. It lasted until the 1st day of December. Of every three people, two died. At first the poor died, and afterward the other important people; except that among the tyrants and great lords none died. And this mortality was general in every land.
