181:1
Gregorius Petro subdiacono. Festivitatibus sanctorum desiderabiliter insistentes, præsentis praeceptionis nostrae paginam ad experientiam tuam necesse duximus dirigendam, indicantes ei oratorium beatae Mariæ, quod nuper in cella tratrum aedificatum est, ubi Marinianus abbas praeesse dignoscitor, Augusto mense disposuisse nos, adjuvante Domino, summopere dedicari, quatcnus coRph nostra, operante Domino, debeant consummari. Sed quia cellae ipsius tenuitas exigit, debere nos in ipsa diei festivitate concurrere; propterea volumus ut ad celebrandam dedicationem dare debeas ad erogandum pauperibus, in auro solidos decem, vini amphoras triginta, a agnos ducentos, olei b orcas duas, berbices.
額我略致副執事伯多祿。我們既懷著渴望勤守諸聖的節慶，故認為必須將本次訓令的文書寄交閣下裁酌，通知你：那座近日在弟兄們的隱修院中所建、瑪利尼亞努斯院長奉命主持的、獻於聖母瑪利亞的祈禱所，我們已決定在八月間仰賴上主之助，極其隆重地舉行祝聖，好使我們的誓願藉上主的作為得以完成。但因該院狹小，要求我們須在那節慶當日一同聚集，因此我們願你為舉行祝聖之禮，備妥以下物品分施貧者：黃金十索利都、酒三十甕、羔羊二百隻、油二桶，以及公綿羊
Gregory to Peter, subdeacon. Since we devote ourselves with longing to the festivals of the saints, we have judged it necessary to direct this page of our present instruction to your discretion, informing you that we have determined, with the Lord's help, to have most solemnly dedicated in the month of August the oratory of blessed Mary which was recently built in the cell of the brethren, where Abbot Marinianus is known to preside; and that our vows may, by the Lord's working, be brought to completion. But because the smallness of that cell requires that we assemble on that very festival day, we therefore wish that, for the celebration of the dedication, you should provide for distribution to the poor: ten gold solidi, thirty amphorae of wine, two hundred lambs, two casks of oil, and wethers
181:2
duodecim, gallinas centum, quæ tuis possint rationibus postmodum imputari. Statim ergo fieri hæc nulla morae interjectione constitue, ut vuta nostra, Deo auctore, celerem sortiantur effectum.
十二隻、母雞一百隻，這些日後皆可記入你的帳目。故務使此事立即辦妥，不容任何延宕，好使我們的誓願藉天主為其成就者，得以迅速實現。
twelve, and a hundred hens, which may afterwards be charged to your accounts. Therefore see that these things are done at once, without any interval of delay, so that our vows may, God being their author, obtain a speedy fulfilment.
