After this the devils led me to a great valley where there was a wheel of burning fire, all the spindles and spokes of which were full of hooks of burning iron and a soul hung on each hook. And that wheel hung vertically, one half down and the other against the ground where there was a black fire like sulfur and those hanging on that wheel were burning. And then the devils said to me:
‘This torment you will suffer but we shall show you beforehand what torment this is.’
And then the devils went on one side and the other and placed the wheel against each other and made great flames come out of the middle and around the wheel, and made it revolve and go so suddenly that of those hanging on the wheel none could see the other, rather it seemed that there was only fire because it was revolving so fast. And those hanging on that wheel lamented most miserably and then the devils seized me and threw me onto the wheel — whirling round I called on the name of Jesus Christ and at once I was out of the wheel and was free of that danger and torment.
