Amico suo admodum Reverendo Dud∣leio Loftusio J. V. D. Vicario Gene∣rali Armachano, & Summae Curiae Cancellariae in hoc Regno Hiberniae Magistro.

CLarissime Ʋir! in quo vel solo vel principe, praeter exactissimam Linguarum Orientalium Cogni∣tionem, Juris Canonici, & Civilis pruden∣tia, apud nos injuriâ temporum unà cum professoribus penè extincta, non reviviscit modò sed & eminet. Totus per me Clerus Clogherensis exoratum te volunt quate∣nùs Orationem illam tuam Luculentissi∣mam, quam apud eos in VISITATIONE ista sede vacante, nupèr habuisti & in quâ Johannis Leslaei Episcopi sui defuncti Vi∣tam,

Page [unnumbered]

Mores, Pietatem & Doctrinam, quasi in Tabulâ Apellaeo plùs quam pene∣cillo, tuo more depinxisti, Praelo, in eorum gratiam, haud gravatim permittas. Quod & tua quoque tempora summopere à te, & jure suo contendunt. Ʋt sciant poste∣ri, occubuisse etiam hìc apud nos, in extre∣mo Orbis terrarum angulo, qualem, vel Ec∣clesia Primitiva, sibi optasset Episcopum. Vir enim verè magnus fuit, ut cum maxi∣mis compararetur. Praevidemus tuam hic renitentiam, quia scimus modestiam. sed tot tantorumque Virorum precibus obnixius repugnare, crede mihi, modestiae erit plus quàm immodestae. à qua culpâ te esse ali∣enissimum, nota tua cum justitia, tum hu∣manitas indicio est. Monumento quovis aere perenniori, à te illi posito, Epitaphium nostrum, per me licet, addas. Ʋalere te jubet Literatorum decus

Salutis & famae tuae cupidiss. ROB: Kilmorensis, &c.
