Original text:Franci vero cum Parthenium in odio magno haberent, pro eo quod eis tributa antedicti regis tempore inflixisset [...] confugium ab urbe facit ac duobus episcopis suppliciter exorat, ut eum ad urbem Treverecam deducentes [...] Igitur accedentibus episcopis ad antedictam urbem, cum strepentes populi seditionem ferre non possint, eum in eclesia abdire voluerunt.
Translation text:The Franks hated Parthenius bitterly, for in the time of the late King [Theudebert] it was he who had levied the taxes [...] he fled from the city and begged two bishops to help him. He asked them to escort him to the town of Trier. [...] The two bishops reached Trier, but they could do nothing to quell the riot of the howling mob, and they had to hide Parthenius in a church.
