– Je le regardais comme un petit intrigant, très digne neveu de l’illustre comtesse Mosca ; mais à la dernière fois qu’il a prêché, tenez, à l’église de la Visitation, vis-à-vis de chez vous, il a été tellement sublime, que, toute haine cessante, je le regarde comme l’homme le plus éloquent que j’aie jamais entendu.
"I did regard him as a little intriguer, a most worthy nephew of the illustrious Contessa Mosca, but the last time he preached; why, it was at the Church of the Visitation, opposite you, he was so sublime, that I could not hate him any longer, and I regard him as the most eloquent man I have ever heard."
