Paragraph:
II, 5
Translation:
In the flat area at the top of Mount Sion are many monks' cells which surround a great church there, which they say was founded by the apostles because there they received the Holy Spirit. There too Saint Mary died and there too is shown the place of the venerable Lord's Supper. Also there is a marble column standing in the middle of the church, against which the Lord was scourged. The following is said to be the plan of this church.
(transl. Wilkinson)
