Source text - English When I left the village, I came upon a crossroads and didn't know which way to go. So I fell on my knees and prayed. And my prayer was heard, for the finger of Christ rose from the ground to show the right path. On I went, through this sinful land, and suddenly I heard the sound of a thousand-headed crowd at work, and I saw their queen and their towers. I journeyed further on and all at once there rose from the ground the jaws of the Behemoth, and his broken teeth jutted up to the heavens like the tombstones of the Moabites. So I went through the mouth of the beast. And by the road I saw the abode of the Apostles Peter and Andrew. I was hungry, so I took the fruits of their labours and filled my belly. Then I left their house and saw two widows weeping and keening. I wept with them and they let me sleep in their shadow.
I went further along the edge of the world and saw the ribs of the great Leviathan washed up by the sea! Then I saw two bridges over the River Jordan, and the Devil tempted me and tried to lure me to the one on the right. But I saw through his deception and went against his will. And then I finally saw it - the gateway to the Garden of Paradise, abundant with foliage. It was guarded by men of straw, but they saw I was a good Christian and let me enter therein.
These were the last words uttered by the heretic Peter of Hradek, for he did then breathe his last. The Vicar did then state that his death was surely the work of Lucifer, to silence his tongue before the ears of the servants of God. The Executioner thereupon took umbrage and made conceited objections, for which his wage was cut by three Groschen and he was admonished not to repeat such remarks, especially in the presence of a Servant of Holy Mother Church. The body of the heretic was buried outside the cemetery wall as befits, so that it should not corrupt hallowed ground. Thereby the Case of the Heretic Peter of Hradek was brought to a close in accordance with Ecclesiastical Law.
Translation - French En quittant le village, je me suis retrouvé à une intersection sans savoir quelle route emprunter. Je me suis alors agenouillé en prière. Mon oraison a été entendue, puisque le doigt du Christ s'est élevé des entrailles de la Terre pour me montrer la bonne voie. Je traversais cette terre de débauche quand soudain, j'ai entendu la clameur d'un millier de personnes, j'ai aperçu leur reine et leurs tours. J'ai poursuivi mon chemin jusqu'à ce que brusquement, la mâchoire du Béhémoth jaillisse du sol, ses crocs cassés touchant les cieux tels les sépultures des Moabites. Je me suis alors engouffré dans la gueule de la bête. Près de la route, j'ai vu la demeure des apôtres Pierre et André. Affamé que j'étais, j'ai pris le fruit de leur labeur pour me remplir l'estomac. En quittant leur maison, j'ai aperçu deux veuves en pleurs. J'ai joint leurs lamentations et elles m'ont laissé m'assoupir dans leur ombre.
En continuant à longer la lisière du monde, j'ai vu les côtes du monstrueux Léviathan, charriées sur la rive par les flots ! Puis je suis arrivé devant deux ponts qui traversaient le Jourdain et le Diable a tout fait pour que j'emprunte celui de droite. Décelant sa duperie, j'ai fait tout l'inverse. C'est alors que je l'ai enfin aperçue : la porte du jardin d'Éden au feuillage luxuriant. Elle était gardée par des hommes de paille qui, voyant en moi un bon chrétien, m'ont laissé entrer.
Ces mots sont les derniers prononcés par l'hérétique Pierre de Hradek poussant alors son ultime soupir. Le vicaire déclara par la suite que sa mort était sûrement l'œuvre de Lucifer, de façon à le réduire au silence devant les oreilles des serviteurs de Dieu. Le bourreau a à cet instant fit des objections prétentieuses à ce sujet, ce qui lui valut une diminution de son salaire de trois groschen et un avertissement de ne pas répéter de telles remarques à l'avenir, particulièrement en présence d'un serviteur de la sainte mère l'Église. Comme il sied, le corps de l'hérétique fut enterré à l'extérieur des murs du cimetière, de sorte qu'il ne puisse corrompre le sol sanctifié. L'affaire de l'hérétique Pierre de Hradek est ainsi close conformément à la loi ecclésiastique.
