"profecta insimul cum Suora cesuis ligna valde mane in Saltu ubi vulgo dicitur l'Uria, 
in loco nimi prerupto, labore haud levi se exercens incaute pede prolabente pede, 
decidit a cacumine montis, et in medio illius penitus collisa remansit suspensa, circa 
horam vigesimam diei; Soror, que nullum poterat ei prebere auxilium lacrimabunda 
prope illam se collocarat. 
Accola videntes eas non rediisse in meridie, non hora inclinata, no vespere, circa 
horam primam noctis, concitato Pago San Biagio, accensis luminibus, ac piceis 
facibus, circa locum precipietem advolavere, invenerunta; primam suspensam in medio 
rupis, alteram vero ne longe gementem, ibiq tota nocte quievere; mane sole iam orto, 
arcessitor confessario pro absolutine, paulatim et magno conatu in imum montis delata, 
semivivam domi asportavere,  que post decem circiter dies, id est a supranotato in 
domo sua" ("aving set out with her Sister to cut down trees very early in the morning 
in the forest commonly called l'Uria, in a very steep place, she, while exerting herself 
with no light work, fell from the top of the mountain, and remained completely crushed 
and suspended in the middle of it, about the twentieth hour of the day; the Sister, who 
could not offer her any help, had placed herself near her, weeping.
The neighbors, 
seeing that they had not returned at noon, not at dusk, not in the evening, about the 
first hour of the night, the Pago San Biagio was stirred up, lighting lights and pitch 
torches, flew around the place of the precipice, and found the first suspended in the 
middle of the cliff, but the second not far away, groaning, and there they rested all 
night; in the morning, when the sun had risen, the confessor summoned her for 
absolution, gradually and with great effort carried her to the bottom of the mountain, 
and carried her home, half-alive, which after about ten days, that is, from the 
aforementioned in her house")
