Erat autem turris excelsa in media civitate, ad quam confugerant simul viri ac mulieres, et omnes principes civitatis, clausa firmissime janua, et super turris tectum stantes per propugnacula.
And there was in the midst of the city a high tower, to which both the men and the women were fled together, and all the princes of the city, and having shut and strongly barred the gate, they stood upon the battlements of the tower to defend themselves.
Es autem turre excelso in medio civitate, ad quam confuge simul viros et mulieres, et omni principes de civitate, claude firmiter ianua, et super turre tecto sta per propugnaculos.
