Sola voce triumphat: Festivities for the Beatification of Ignatius of Loyola in Goa in 1610
A rare manuscript kept in Torre do Tombo (Lisbon, Portugal) preserves the memory of several celebrations of the beatification of Ignatius of Loyola, which took place around the realms of the Spanish Habsburgs in 1609–11.
