Translation:
In this city (of Jerusalem) there is another church to the south, on Mount Sion, called Saint Simeon's, where the Lord washed the feet of his disciples, and the Lord's crown of thorns hangs there. This is the church where we are told Saint Mary died. Nearby on the east is the church in honour of St. Stephen, where he is said to have been stoned. And eastwards again is a church in honour of blessed Peter, where he denied the Lord.
