Original text:Igitur tandem, parvam repertam insulam qui vocabulum est Chanelaus iuxta Scaldum fluvium, aliquantis diebus cum fratribus spiritalibus inibi Christo militavit. Sed verbi Dei contemptoribus per biennium fere ingens adtrivit plaga, ita ut eversae domus, agri in solitudine redacti, necnon etiam vici vel castra destruerentur, nullusque pene in his regionibus remaneret, qui virum Dei contempserant praedicantem.
Translation text:Finding a small island called Calloo by the River Scheldt, he worked there for some time with his spiritual brethren. But for some two years a great disaster fell on these who had despised the word of God. Houses collapsed, fields were made into solitudes, even small towns and forts were destroyed, and hardly anyone remained in these regions of those who had despised the preaching of the man of God.
