We received the letters of your blessedness with a grateful and joyful spirit. For who would not receive with the most willing ears the words of one whom not only the authority of the apostolic see celebrates, but whose integrity of life and zealous devotion to the right faith commend? We therefore ask and urge that our name never depart from your prayers, and especially that of our most serene husband, but that the heavenly protection be appeased by your prayers for both of us and for the republic alike.
