Sarebbe dunque di particolare interesse cercare di analizzare questo motivo nella luce di una esperienza spirituale, se non nel siginificato strettamente mistico della parola, nel senso di un levarsi della mente al di la del limitate naturale verso un mondo di puro spirito fuori del tempo e dello spazio.

However, in the middle of the 17th century, there was a famine outbreak. The Knights of Malta tried and successfully overcame this famine through negotiating and the diplomatic help of Mgr. Anthony Pignatelli (later, Pope Innocent XII), in his twofold function of Inquisitor and Apostolic Delegate for the Maltese Islands.
