Qui reductus in corpore, et die tertia rursum eductus, vidit non solum maiora beatorum gaudia, sed et maxima malignorum spirituum certamina, qui crebris accusationibus improbi, iter illi caeleste intercludere contendebant; nec tamen protegentibus eum angelis quicquam proficiebant: de quibus omnibus si quis plenius scire vult, id est, quanta fraudis sollertia daemones et actus eius et verba superflua, et ipsas etiam cogitationes, quasi in libro descriptas, replicaverint; quae ab angelis sanctis, quae a viris iustis sibi inter angelos apparentibus laeta vel tristia cognoverit, legat ipsum, de quo dixi, libellum vitae eius, et multum ex illo, ut reor, profectus spiritalis accipiet.
And this man, being restored again to the body and within three days after taken out again, saw not only greater joys of the blessed, but also mighty conflicts of wicked spirits which without rest went about to stop him of his journey toward heaven with their often accusations, but yet by the warding of the angels availed naught against him: of all the which things if any listeth more at large to be instructed, as with what spiteful subtleties the evil spirits unfolded his doings and superfluous words as well as his very thoughts, as if they had been written in a book; what glad and heavy tidings he learned of the holy angels, and what things of righteous men appearing unto him amongst the angels, let him read the little book itself of his life, of which I have spoken, and he shall receive therefrom, as I think, much spiritual advantage.
