group he has already come to the end of seven weeks, and
several times he begged me to lend it to him again. It is true
that I have a copy of it myself, but it is not exactly the same,
and so he must have the same booklet again. Please give Fr
Ballardini my sincere regards and tell him to excuse me for
hurrying him, and to commend me to God.
A thousand wishes to all our dear fellow members.
Commend me to the prayer of each one of them. I expect to
have a letter from you soon. With the prayerful wish that we be
wholly consumed by the Holy Love of Jesus Christ.

st
Lovere, 1 January 1829.

th
P.S. I almost forgot to tell you that on the 4 instant Rev.
Superior is starting the Spiritual Exercises to the Sodality. I
earnestly commend him to your kind prayer, that they may
bear good fruit. Please pray and make others pray hard. For
all that you tell me in your letter I will give you a reply as soon
as I can. So long, then.

Your poor and unworthy Sister
BORTOLAMEA OF JESUS
