  that the aforementioned three men left the castle and came towards him for killing him, in that vineyard, and one of them took an arrow, and when he saw the crossbow armed he ran way, but they came after him for killing him, and actually they would have killed him with that arrow if not because God wanted to protect him, and as they threw that arrow, they also threw a stone which hit him in the head
