Tut LorpD’s PRAYER. 
In one of Pareja’s volumes I found a loose sheet of paper, on which a 
Mexican had, on February 7, 1864, carefully transcribed the Lord’s Prayer 
from the following volume: ‘‘ Explicacion de la ‘ Doctrina’ que compus6 
el Cardenal Belarmino por mandado del Sefior Papa Clemente VIII. 
Traduida en lengua Floridana por el Padre Fr. Gregorio de Muoilla, etc., 
etc., Mexico, 1635.’’
