1He who created me sold me to a certain Rhoda in Rome. After many years, I met her again and began to love her as a sister.
2Some time later, I saw her bathing in the river Tiber and I gave her my hand to help her out of the water.
3Seeing her beauty, I reflected in my heart: How happy I would be if I had a wife of such beauty and character.
4I only considered this, nothing more. After some time, while walking to Cumae, glorifying God's creatures, I was caught up by the Spirit and carried through an impassable region, through cliffs and ravines.
