Capitulum XI

from Ludmilla by Budeč

lyrics

Recordatus avie sue beatus Wenceslaus, quante sanctitatis in presenti fuisset quanteque claritatis meritum a Cunctiponente obtinuisset, lacrimarum imbre perfusus, inito consilio cum sacerdotibus et religiosis quibusdam, misit eos in castellum Tetyn, mandans, quod ossa vel pulverem consumpte carnis digna translacione ad se usque perducerent. Legati ergo, implentes iussa domini sui, basilicam ingressi ac monumentum, humo revoluto, detegentes, tabulam sepulcri, qua venerabilis gleba tegebatur, partim putretudine consumptam reperientes, sublevare formidaverunt, dicentes: „si lignum putritum est, quanto magis ea, que intus latuit“, rursum sacrofagum claudere voluerunt summa cum diligencia. Quorum consiliis quidam presbiter Paulus obsistens, qui semper illi, dum in terris deguit, obsecundatus est, inquit: „Nequaquam, ut dicitis, fiet, sed iuxta principis iussa! Si pulverem consumpte carnis invenero, tollam!“ Cui ceteri consencientes, unanimiter tabulam levaverunt. Quam, dum sustolunt, frangitur ita, quod memoratus Paulus cum humo super corpus iacentis caderet. Qui concito surgens humumque attolens, invenit corpus sacrum ab omni corrupcione seiunctum, preterquam, quod ei de fractura cooperculi, dum amoveretur, insideret. Unde multo cum gaudio gracias Deo referunt et glebam sanctissimam sustolentes linteaminibus preciosis, ut decuit, obvolentes, altari presentaverunt. Cunctisque solempniter peractis, feretro eam locantes, duobus equis superposuerunt et eadem nocte usque ad urbem Pragam constanter properant. Repertum autem est corpus felicis et deo devote famule Ludmille XIIII Kalendas Novembris hora XII, feria quarta; intulerunt autem eam Pragam feria IV XII Kalendas eiusdem mensis leticia cum ingenti, Christum cunctis laudantibus.
