In English | Love letter written by a monk, frei João da Madre de Deus, to a young lady, [Maria Marcelina], alias, Maricas. The author shows to be jealous of another chorus monk from whom the addressee may have accepted a jewel box. The monk frei João da Madre de Deus was accused of conduct unsuitable to his religious condition. He was involved with a mother and her daughters, who had received him in their house in Alenquer. The women handed the letters as a proof of his guilt but were afraid both of his vindictive character and of the proofs he himself held, because he had never handed back their own correspondence. He also kept the gifts they had given him: a braid of hair, two silver hearts and a silver case. |
