Iustorum autem animae in manu Dei sunt et non tanget illos tormentum mortis visi sunt in oculis insipientium mori et aestimata est adflictio exitus illorum et quod a nobis est iter exterminii illi autem sunt in pace.
“The souls of the just are in the hand of God…in the sight of the unwise they seemed to die and their departure was taken for misery and their going away from us was seen as utter destruction but, in truth, they are at peace”
