In English | Family letter from Guiomar de Sá to Francisco de Matos The author asks for news about her brother. Vasco de Oliveira was accused of Judaism. Two letters written by his sister, Guiomar de Sá, were found in the process. «I always believed you would send me news from my brother and tell me how he left that land. I didn’t write sooner because I was in bed, due to five bloodlettings and other illnesses, all caused by my brother’s absence and the misfortune it caused, because God protected me from so many troubles so that I could face this bigger problem; may Go be praised. I’ll talk to Mr. Francisco de Matos to see how he can talk to my brother, and, as I know what he wanted from you, I talk this way and I’ll remember all the things that are dear to him, so that I can provide them if I can. And, therefore, I ask you to never forget such a good friend, as he is, and to ask God to guide him and to give him what he deserves. I make the same remark to your fellow lady, reminding her that I’m her servant and I don’t forget the many obligations my brother told he had to you. I take those obligations as my own to serve them always. Now, let me know news about Sá Ferreira and the others, so that I can know what to do. The letter that goes with this one, I ask you to send it or hand it in to someone who goes, because I don’t want anyone to see it. I’ll ask you nothing else, because I know it’s unnecessary. Luís Pereira kisses your hand a thousand times and I do the same to that lady; may Our Lord keep you both. Mrs. Guiomar de Sá» |
