And some devout men of the regions of the East wished to carry off the relics of the saints, and immediately there was a great earthquake in the city; and those that dwelt in the city having become aware of it, ran and seized the men, but they fled.

And after these things, all having assembled with glory and singing of praise, they put them in the place built for them.
