Short accounts of seventy seven Jesuit Fathers, chiefly martyrs, arranged in order of the days on which they are commemorated, preceded by an index of 'Martiri et altre Persone insigni della Compagnia.' There are some corrections and additions in a rather later hand. The first account is of Alfonso di Castro: some of the persons are English.
