Primum Petrus in parte occidentali ciuitatis iuxta uiam Corneliam ad miliarium primum in corpore requiescit; et pontificalis ordo, excepto numero pauco, in eodem loco in tymbis propriis requiescit. Ibi quoque iuxta eandem uiam sedis est apostolorum, et mensa et recubitus eorum de marmore facta usque hodie apparet; mensa quoque, modo altare, quam petrus manibus suis fecit, ibidem est.
Iuxta eadem quoque uiam sancta Rufina, sancta Secunda, sancta Maria, sanctus Marius, sanctus Ambacu, sanctus Audafax et alii quamplurimi sancti iacent.
'ON THE HOLY PLACES OF THE MARTYRS WHICH ARE OUTSIDE THE CITY OF ROME
First, Peter rests in body in the western part of the city close by the via Cornelia, by the first milestone; and the pontifical order, except a small number, rests in the same place in their own tombs. There, close by the same road there is also the chair of the apostles, and their table and couch, made from marble, is visible to this very day. Also the table, now an altar, which Peter made with his own hands, is in the same place.
Close by the same road lie saint Rufina, saint Secunda, saint Maria, saint Marius, saint Abacuc, saint Audifax and many other saints.'
