“Qui cum propriam supplicationem, ad optinendam quam querebat indulgentiam, prorsus cerneret inefficacem, ad emendicanda plurimorum suffragia, corpore seminudus et discalceatus, uniuersas pene ordinis illius domus adiuit. Erat uero tempus iam mediantis brume, cum omnis ilia regio glaciali rigore et niuium congerie, flatibus quoque hibernis exasperata, etiam bene uestito ad gradiendum uidebatur incommoda. Nichilominus hic penitens nouus et innocens ueteranus, a castris in quibus tot lustra splendide militando transegerat, extorris non transfuga, per aspera montium per deuexa uallium ita ut erat nudulus digreditur.”
When he found his own prayers were useless to obtain the pardon he sought, he went barefoot and half-naked to almost all the houses of his order to beg for their intercession. It was then mid-winter, when walking was unpleasant in that district even for the warmly clad, owing to the hard frost and heavy snow aggravated by the wintry winds. Nevertheless this new penitent, a blameless old man, an exile but not a fugitive from the fortresses where he had dwelt and fought so gallantly for so many years, wandered among the precipitous mountains and craggy valleys, almost naked.
