Summary
Saying to her recipient that she has been regarding his special virtues with particular respect and that she therefore contributed whatever she could to his marriage to the Countess, and since he invited her to be godparent to the expected child, she confirms her cordial friendship; also recognizing the honor of being joined by Cardinal Giovanni Francesco Negroni in the ceremony; wishing him a baby boy and praying for them; in the postscript, in her own hand, thanking him for selecting her for the function.
