Extract:
Vindimius abbas petitorii nobis insinuatione suggessit, quod habetur in subditis, juxta muros civitatis Salternitanae intra monasterium suum oratorium se pro sua devotione fundasse, quod in honore beatorum martyrum Chrysanthus et Dariae desiderat consecrari. Et ideo, si nullum corpus ibidem constat humatum, praedictum monasterium absque missis consecrabis.
‘The abbot Vindimius has asked us in a petition, which is included below, that he desires that an oratory he has founded for his own devotion in his monastery, next to the walls of the city of Salerno, be consecrated in honour of the blessed martyrs Chrysanthus and Daria. And so, if it is clear that no body is buried there, you will consecrate without masses the aforesaid monastery.
