70:1
Praesentia domni patris gloriae vestræ biduana occupatione detentus aliquatenus portitorem tardius ordinavi, per quem annuum de sancti Vincentii solemnitate servitium consuetudinariæ sollicitudinis cura dependerem: et inter actiones quibus vester pro salute nostra labor invigilat, debitus semper animus cultum meritae devotionis offerret. Sufficit ergo ad consolationem desiderii mei, si omnium nostrum sanitas in vestra post Deum prosperitato consistit. Caeterum non absque scrupulo potest accipi, quod d de Sapaudia itineribus exquisitis videmur ad provinciam praeteriri.
因兩日的事務羈絆於您榮耀之主父的座前，我略遲才安排此送信人，藉他繳付關於聖文森節慶我循例掛念之年度事奉：且願在您為我等安康而警醒勞碌的諸般事務之中，一顆常懷本分的心靈獻上應盡虔敬的敬禮。故只要我等眾人的康健，在神之後繫於您的昌盛，於我思慕之慰藉便已足夠。至於其餘，我們似乎在您取道薩包狄亞、經迂迴之路前往行省時被略過，此事實在無法毫無不安地承受。
Detained by a two-day engagement in the presence of the lord father of your Glory, I have somewhat later arranged the bearer, through whom I might pay the yearly service of my customary solicitude concerning the solemnity of Saint Vincent; and that, amid the affairs in which your labor keeps watch for our welfare, a mind ever dutiful might offer the homage of due devotion. It suffices, then, for the consolation of my longing, if the health of us all rests, after God, in your prosperity. For the rest, it cannot be received without some misgiving that we seem to be passed by on your way to the province through Sapaudia by roundabout routes.
