custody in the secret Prison of this Holy Office, with his property
sequestrated, for uttering heretical speeches. Respecting this prisoner,

their publication. The audience for this purpose was held on the

a full denial. In this state the case remains at present.

The prisoner was furnished with the publication of the testimony, and
allowed to confer with his counsel. He drew up articles of defence, and
in this state the case remains.

The prisoner’s defence was received on the third of this month, and the
audience for communication with his counsel was held on the eighth, when
his final defence was made. On the ninth, sentence was passed with the
assistance of the Ordinary, unanimously, that the prisoner should be put
to the regular torture, before the execution of which, it was resolved
that the case should be referred to your Highness, which was done on the
tenth. The matter remains in this state waiting for the decision of your
Highness.
