71:1
tantum servulus vester domni nostri recenset, quantum st ntio: nondum plene detersa inaequalitate, attentos reJdit et anxios: ut pro contemplatione pietatis illius quam festis specialius optare consucvimus, sufiicere nobis commoditatem vestram pro omni solemnium jucunditate credamus. Unde servans post cultum Natalis dominIci solitæ sollicitudinis servitutem, tota nosse vos voti ambitione desidero, si decus commune quod Viennensis ecclesiola praesenli vice non meruit, vel Lugdunensium populorum gaudia duplicavit.
您的小僕對我等之主僅能述說他所知的那麼多：那尚未完全消除的不適，使我們專注而焦慮；以致我們相信，您的安好對我們而言，已足以替代那我們在節日尤其習於企望的、對其虔敬之瞻仰，抵得上一切節慶的歡愉。故我在主誕的敬禮之後，仍持守著慣常掛念之事奉，以全副祈願的熱望渴欲得知：維埃納的小教會此番未能得享的那共有的榮光，是否至少加倍了里昂諸民的喜樂。
Your little servant reckons of our lord only so much as he knows: the unevenness of health, not yet fully cleared away, renders us watchful and anxious; so that, in place of the contemplation of that devotion which we have been especially accustomed to desire at festivals, we may believe your well-being sufficient for us in lieu of all the gladness of the solemnities. Wherefore, keeping up, after the observance of the Lord's Nativity, the service of my wonted solicitude, I long with the whole ambition of my prayer to know whether the common honor which the little church of Vienne did not on this present occasion deserve has at least doubled the joys of the peoples of Lyons.
71:2
Nam si vos, Christo favente, ut ad ecclesiam potuisse procedere aut devotionem consuetudinariam rescripseritis implesse, participes redditi laetitiae vicinorum, epulaturos nos prolitemur auditu, si illos qUibus præsentia vestra donata est, refectos cognoverimus intuitu.
因為，倘若蒙基督眷佑，您回信說您得以前往教堂、或已履行慣常的敬拜，那麼我們既得分享鄰人的喜樂，便宣告我們將以所聞為饗宴；若我們得知那些蒙賜您親臨的人已藉目睹而得振奮，就更是如此。
For if you, by Christ's favor, write back that you were able to go forth to church, or that you fulfilled your customary devotion, then, made sharers in the gladness of our neighbors, we declare that we shall feast upon the hearing of it, when we learn that those to whom your presence was granted have been refreshed by the sight.
