[The Cardinal of Alessandria to the Bishop of Mondovi.
Rome, 30 July 1567.
Most reverend sir, etc. To yours of the 14th, etc.
To your second letter, that of the 15th of this month, I shall also
make but brief answer, as I have nothing of importance to communicate.
In his Holiness’ name, however, I must praise your lordship for your
diligence, and Father Hay for his, and thank him for his letter also,
as to which we shall be able to pass a better judgment later than we can
at present. The holy Father leaves all to God’s good providence, but is
nevertheless desirous that you should inform him of all that you may
hear from day to day concerning the business of the queen. As this is
all I have to say, I commend myself, etc.
From Rome, the 30th of July ’67, etc.
Come fratello, etc. The Cardinal of Alessandria.]
