Since I was there on the 13th of October, a day of such great happiness for me, I often meditate on it, and seem to see our dear mother of heaven and that whole place, to which I long with all my soul to return one day.

Como ahi estive no dia 13 d'outubro dia para mim de tão grande felicidade, muitas vezes medito, parecendo-me estar a ver a nossa querida mãe do céo, e esse recinto todo, que muito do intimo d'alma desejo um dia voltar.
