Summary
Telling his recipient that Ferdinando II, Grand-Duke of Tuscany has agreed to please him by choosing him to work at his service and asking him to be sincere with him; also saying that he should not worry about the displeasure felt by the Barberini since what he will lose in their grace, he will gain more in serving the Medici family.
