Afmy in which we were, having attended^ 

 whilft the Emperor with the other, conti^ 

 nued his Hunting, he was not wanting in 

 fending to us daily, and fometimes twice a 

 D^y, during thi§ fpace. Food from his own 

 Table. In fine, we looked dn all thefe Fa- 

 vours of the Royal Family, as the effefts of 

 a particular Providence which watched over 

 us, and over Chriftianity, for which we had

 who went in a Chariot ^ he caufed alfo an in-* 

 finite number of Bridges to be made over the 

 Torrents, as alfo the Rocks to be cut, and the 

 Points of the Mountains, with incredible 

 Pains and Expences : 'Pathcv Grimaldi fhall de- 

 fcribe the other particulars in his Letters.
