Letter CDXXXVII. To the Same

Letter CDXXXVI in Eales's numbering.

In favour of the Bishop of Troyes.

The necessity of the Bishop of Troyes, a reverend old man and my friend, obliges me to have recourse again to the well known fountain of loving kindness. This then, is my request, that your Apostolic Piety would not permit a good man, whose white hairs have already deserved peace and quiet, to be unjustly harassed: and that you would deign to grant the petitions which he makes by his messenger.
