To each and every one who will inspect the present letters, we attest and bear witness that we have taken particles of the Bones of St. Maria Goretti, Virgin and Martyr, from authentic places, and have placed them in a metallic case, round in shape, secured with a single crystal, well sealed, tied with a silk cord of red color, and sealed with our seal. In witness of this, we grant these testimonial letters, signed by us and fortified with our seal.
