Wednesday, a meridie. Cracovi:E. It is first to be noted, that this morning (early) to E.K. lying in his bed, and awake, appeared a vision, in manner as followeth: one standing by his bed's head, who patted him on the head gently, to make him the more vigilant. He seemed to be clothed with feathers, strangely wreathed about him allover, &c. Ci 129 Ci Se ~e"trio 1111' 111111 E:~ I.. IlI11 tI }t! There appeared to him (E.K.) four very fair castles, standing in the four parts of the world: out of which he heard the sound of a trumpet. Our of every gate then issued one trumpeter, whose trumpets were of strange form, wreathed, and growing bigger and bigger toward the end. After the trumpeter followed three ensign bearers. After them six ancient men, with white beards and staves in their hands. Then followed a comely man, with very much apparel on his back. After him came five men carrying up of his train. Then followed one great cross, and about that four lesser crosses. After the crosses followed 16 white creatures. And after them, an infinite number seemed to issue, and to spread themselves orderly in a compass, almost before the four foresaid castles. Upon which vision declared unto me, I straightway set down a note of it; trusting in God that it did signify good. After noon, as E.K. sat by me, he felt on his head some strange moving: t!. 130 t!.
