but only to shew that eminent sanctity may proue it selfe by the cleere beames of her owne beauty without any any borrowed light deriued from supernaturall power as it did in S.

Bennet called Paula Landi in the Monastery of our B. Ladyes in Campo Martio of Rome Thus the thing fell out The said Paula the sixth day of October A strange and miraculous cure done by a Relique o● the Cardinall by a fall brake one of her rib-bones in such sort as that one part thereof did stand out and the other was turned inward towards her brest the paine she felt was excessiue and withall her weaknes was such as she could not vest herselfe eate or vse her arme The Surgeon in setting the bone right increased her paine and besides the extremity of her bodily griefe she was in wardly also very much afflicted in mynde with the feare eyther of a continuall lamenes if she did recouer or with the long end●rance of that insupportable torment which would haue no other end then the end of her life Whiles she remayned in the perplexity of these afflicting thoughts there was brought to the Monastery a piece of linnen that had touched the Cardinalls body which she desired to haue when she had it did apply the same to the woūd much swolne with the concourse of humors then betaking herselfe to prayer hartily craued the intercession of the holy Cardinall loe in the space of one houre she was deliuered frō all paine could vest herselfe walke and doe any thing as before in so much as on the Sonday following for this hapned on fryday she serued the rest at table and at this present is as well able to doe any thing as euer she was before And this the party hath testifyed to my selfe who purposely got leaue to speake with her about this matter and not only the sayd Paula but others of her Order who were present when I speake vnto her did testify th● same adding further that all of the sayd Monastery would doe the like Paula herselfe wrote as much as here I report subscribed the same with her own hand and sent it to the Fathers of the Society of the Casa Professa where the Cardirall is buryed Since the former cure there hath hapned another that vpon an Honorable personage to wit the Lord Riuiullo Bishop of Bel-Castro This man being much afflicted with a payne in his sides that wonderfully molested him before he vvould apply any medicine thereunto called for a little red cap of silke which Bellarmyne did vveare vnder his square cap and confiding much in his merits and intercession touched those partes that grieued him therewith and incontinently he was cured and fully deliuered from all payne as the said Honourable Personage hath testifyed and confirmed by his Oath Hand and Seale More in this kind I might write but for that I haue not such meanes to search out their truth as I thinke is requisite ere they be thus diuulged I leaue them to others to relate who doe better know them and in the history of his life which already is thought vpon they will I doubt not be most faithfully recorded to the Glory of God Honour of his Seruant and Comfort of others These thinges thus testifyed I thought good to set downe which haue so soone hapned after his death because in part they confirme vvhat before I wrote of his holy life and saint-like departure God graunt vs his Grace so to imitate his Vertues as we may shut vp this our mortall and fraile life with so happy an end Amen Cardinall Bellarmyne was borne in the yeare 1542. the fourth day of October being the feast of S.
