    Al tempo in cui la spada lacerò il pio grembo della madre Chiesa, (Sisto) in qualità di vescovo svolgeva qui il divino ministero. All’improvviso sopraggiungono a portare via chi, accidentalmente, occupava il seggio petrino; la schiera dei fedeli allora offrì, ai soldati inviati, il proprio collo. Quando il vescovo comprese subito chi volesse strappargli la palma del martirio, offrì per primo sé e il capo, non sopportando che la crudeltà potesse fare del male ad altri. Cristo, che gli rende la ricompensa della vita eterna, mostra il merito del martire pastore che protegge ogni membro del suo gregge.

    At the time when the sword cut the holy bowels of Mother Church,the pope here buried was teaching the commandments of Heaven. Those suddenly rush in who seize him as he sits there by chance.The people than began to offer their necks to the soldiers who had been sent.Then, when the old man saw that someone wished to steal his palm, he was the first to offer himself and his head,before their reckless brutality could harm anyone.Christ, who bestows the rewards of Life, showed the pastor’s worth. In his own person, he guards each member of the flock.
