Excellent, this confirms my understanding of the passage you translated before: they understood the reference to "God" and the fact that it had become an animal's name simultaneously.

Jojo: I am certain the reference to the disease is entirely out of place here, this is entirely about Gott's physicality (i.e. Jesus) and swearing by it. Please read the Latin passage. If there is reference to wounds, then it's probably those of Christ.
