173:1
563 Hoc fragmenlum sermonis ex eodem codice S. Dahnatii exscribendum curavimus. Hodie, fratres, beatissimi Joannis Baptistae natalem dcvotissimis festivitatibus celebramus, cujus non solum fuit vita laudabilis, sed et mirabilis ipsius nativitas exstitit. Natus est enim de sterili femina ex senili et ventre procedens, ille est Christi Baptista Joannes de quo scriptum est: Ego vox clamantis in deserto (Luc. III). Clamavit equidem in deserto Joannes, ut infidelis populi durissima 564 corda ad poenitentiam excitaret. Clamavit, ut illum a pessima infidelitate sua.........clamabat atque dicebat: parate viam Domini, rectas facite semitas Dei nostri (Luc. III).
This fragment of a sermon we took care to transcribe from the same codex of St. Dalmatius. Today, brethren, we celebrate with most devout festivities the birthday of the most blessed John the Baptist, whose life was not only praiseworthy, but whose very nativity also proved wondrous. For he was born of a barren woman, proceeding from an aged womb; he is that Baptist of Christ, John, of whom it is written: 'I am the voice of one crying in the wilderness' (Luke 3). John indeed cried in the wilderness, that he might rouse the most hardened hearts of an unbelieving people to repentance. He cried, that he might [call] them from their most wicked unbelief... he cried and said: 'Prepare the way of the Lord, make straight the paths of our God' (Luke 3).
這篇講道的殘篇，我們設法從同一部聖達爾馬修抄本中謄錄下來。弟兄們，今日我們以極其虔誠的節慶慶祝至福的施洗約翰的誕辰，他的一生不僅可稱讚，連他的誕生本身也證明是奇妙的。因為他生於一個不生育的婦人，出於年邁的子宮；他就是那位基督的施洗者約翰，論到他，經上記著說：「我是在曠野有人聲喊著」（路加福音三章）。約翰實在在曠野呼喊，為要喚醒不信之民極其剛硬的心悔改。他呼喊，為要把他們從其極惡的不信中……他呼喊著說：「預備主的道，修直我們神的路」（路加福音三章）。
173:2
(Deest folium.) Ergo ad tempus cum ipso habitemus in hoc sæculo, ut cumipso in æteruum esse possimus. Explicit.
(A leaf is missing.) Therefore let us dwell with Him for a time in this age, that we may be able to be with Him forever. Here it ends.
（缺一頁。）所以，讓我們在這世代與祂同住一時，好使我們能與祂永遠同在。全篇完。
