[Context: To the reverend handmaid in Christ, Leoba, held ever in sincere affection, Bonifice, a servant of the servants of God, sends heartfelt greetings in Christ.]

Be assured, therefore, that whatever you may see fit to do in this matter for the increase of her merits shall have our consent and approval. Farewell in Christ.
