XXXVIII. 1. Sabbato autem alia die iuxta consuetudinem fit ad tertia, item fit ad sexta; ad nonam autem iam non fit sabbato, sed parantur uigiliae paschales in ecclesia maiore, id est in Martyrium. Vigiliae autem paschales sic fiunt, quem ad modum ad nos; hoc solum hic amplius fit, quod infantes, cum baptidiati fuerint et uestiti, quemadmodum exierint de fonte, simul cum episcopo primum ad Anastase ducuntur.

2. Intrat episcopus intro cancellos Anastasis, dicitur unus ymnus, et sic facit orationem episcopus pro eis, et sic uenit ad ecclesiam maiorem cum eis, ubi iuxta consuetudinem omnis populus uigilat. Aguntur ibi, quae consuetudinis est etiam et aput nos, et facta oblatione fit missa. Et post facta missa uigiliarum in ecclesia maiore statim cum ymnis uenitur ad Anastase et ibi denuo legitur ille locus euangelii resurrectionis, fit oratio et denuo ibi offeret episcopus; sed totum ad momentum fit propter populum, ne diutius tardetur, et sic iam dimittetur populus. Ea autem hora fit missa uigiliarum ipsa die, qua hora et aput nos.
