Postea peruenies ad ecclesiam sancti Laurentii; ibi sunt magnae basilicae duae in quarum quae speciosior est et pausat. Et est paruum cubiculum extra ecclesiam in occidente; ibi pausat sanctus Habundius et Herenius martir, uia Tiburtina. Et ibi est ille lapis quem tollent digito multi homines nescientes quid faciunt.
Et in altera ecclesia sursum multi martires pausant: prima est Cyriaca sancta uidua et martir, et in altero loco sanctus Iustinus, et iuxta eum sanctus Crescentius martir et multitudo sanctorum, longe in spelunca deorsum sanctus Romanus martir.
Postea ascendes ad ecclesiam sancti Agapati martiris et diaconi sancti Systi papae.
'Then [from the burial place of Hippolytus, between the Nomentana and the Tiburtina] you come to the church of saint Laurence. There stand two large basilicas and he rests in the more beautiful one. And there is a small chamber outside the church, on its western side; there rests saint Habundius and the martyr Herenius, on the via Tiburtina. And in this place there is also that stone which many people touch with their finger without knowing what they are doing.
And in another church, above ground, many martyrs rest. First there is Cyriaca, holy widow and martyr, and in another place saint Justinus, and close to him saint Crescentius, the martyr, and a multitude of saints. Further away, in a crypt below, saint Romanus, the martyr.
Then you ascend to the church of saint Agapitus, martyr and deacon of saint Sixtus, the pope.'
