'This most holy man was weakened by long-term illness, so that he could hardly even complete the ordinations of priests (sacerdotes). To all the clergy, the monasteries serving the poor, and the mansionarii, he left 1900 solidi. He made 13 bishops for various places. He was buried at the blessed Peter the apostle on the 2nd day of August.'
