Iste ozias , amator agriculture, cum sacerdotium sub azaria usurpasset, percussus est lepra et media pars montis scissa ortos regales oppressit ; sub eo cepit prophetare ysaias et osee et johel et abdias secundum quosdam.

This Uzziah loved agriculture. When he usurped the priesthood under Azariah, he was struck with leprosy and half the mountain split away, destroying the royal gardens. According to some, in his time, Isaiah, Hosea, Joel and Obadiah began to prophesy.
