Most grateful to the King for condolence by the French ambassador [in Rome?] on the affliction and oppression of his family. The King has not only a royal, but Christian mind, commiserating the nobility unjustly aggrieved. The calamities of his family are connected with those of the Church, and of the [Catholic] religion, which is so cruelly and impiously harassed. Does not doubt its being speedily succoured by the King, as by his ancestors. This firm hope is his greatest comfort in these calamaties of the Church and of his country, both public and private. Is greatly confirmed in this hope by the Pope, who assures him of the King's readiness to succour the Church in its great need, as at no period was it ever so cruelly persecuted, even by any infidel Prince, still less by a Christian power. Therefore his Holiness has accredited him (mi ha spedito) to the Emperor, whom should he find as well disposed as the King, he is then to attend his most Christian Majesty.
Rome, February ?
