• September 2, 2am: A strange object flew over Forli (Italy) multiple times: At the beginning of the month of September, many "asud" [name given to celestial objects, notes Professor Marzocchi] appeared in the sky and shooting stars. The flying object was observed by many witnesses: The same year, on the 2nd day of the month of September, at the 2nd hour of the night, a large asud appeared to men who were on the public square of Forli and to others in other places assembled; it crossed the sky very slowly and stayed in the sky for the time of 2 Pater Noster, and it was large in length of one step and when it disappeared - the men who were on the square reported it - it sent out a smell of burning wood and we heard other people who assured that said asud of iron was traversing the air in its own way; but then it remained motionless for a time in space and after that time, it gradually disappeared leaving in its place like a cloud and the remains of vapor had taken the form of snakes, a thing quite admirable.
