II give thanks because, when you send
me the spoils of the Dordogne, you
confirm your most sincere piety
toward me, in which I delight more
than in your treats, because with the
one I suppress the hunger of the
body, and with the other that of the
heart...............
With the one I provide a transitory
meal for my stomach, with the other,
truly, a permanent affection for my
spirit.........
Accordingly, I salute Your Piety all the
more, remitting reciprocal thanks as
much for your love as for your
gift..........
and because you deign to be
solicitous about my health, in
response to the concern of Your Piety
I signify that I am well, and I likewise
request that you inform me when your
people return where you are going to
celebrate the sanctified Pasch..........
IT IS FINISHED,
