Sergius of Radonezh dating history

Details

That autumn in the month of September on the 25th day, the feast day of the venerable saint Ephrosinia [of Alexandria] the venerable Abbot Sergius, that holy elder, so estimable, unimpeachable and benevolent, gentle humble, Saint Sergius of Radonezh plainspoken, whose life surpasseth anything one can say or write, died. Formerly no one like him existed in our land who was pleasing to God and [whom] tsars and princes deemed honorable, [who] drew praise from a patriarch, in whose life unbeliever tsars and princes marveled so that they sent him gifts; [who] was universally beloved for his saintly life, who was the shepherd not only of his flock but [was] the teacher and mentor of our entire Russian land; [who was] a guide to the blind, [who helped] the lame to walk, [who was] to the sick a healer, to the hungry and thirsty a provider, [who] clothed the naked, [who] gave solace to the miserable, [and] to all Christians was the beacon without whose prayers we sinners would not receive God's mercy, to the glory of God forever, amen.
