- Nam Heldicam quendam, quem pater eius praepositum fecerat regni, iam annosum atque veteranum, cum dedecore capite detruncavit: eiusque uxorem cum alia, nomine Teucharia, in medio civitatis incendit. […] Gamuth namque Heldicae fratrem, quia ad ecclesiam corum confugerat, occidere non potuit: quem tamen in loco latrinarum obsceno conclusit multoque cum ibi tempore degere statuit.
