Letter 386. To the Licentiate Martin Alonso de Salinas, Canon of Palencia, Avila, November 13 1581

The Saint asks him to help the foundation at Burgos.

JESUS! May the grace of the Holy Spirit be with your Honour. AS a relief from your other wearisome occupations, it would be well if your Reverence would write to me sometimes, for it certainly is a great boon and a solace to me when I catch sight of a seem to hurt me though there is a great deal of snow. Written at the convent of St. Joseph, Avila, November 23. The unworthy servant of your Reverence, Teresa de Jesus.

I beg your Reverence to remember me very kindly to Sefior Suero de Vega? and Dofia Elvira; tell them that I never forget to ask our Lord to bless them and their little angels,
