145 At the Piarist Fathers mony: “Expleto Novitiatus Anno subtilitatem illi in Theologicis Religio sacra Ordinis Minorum Reformatorum in Conventu Varsaviensi ad Sanctum Antonium subministravit,” VF § 20, Po- sitio 637. 51. Positio 30. 52. “Nam adeo nihil hostilitatis in nostros exercuerunt Sueci, ut etiam filios suos... ad scholas nostras mitterent, literis, arith- metica, scribendi charactere eruditos.” Kraus, p. 152, Positio 286. 53. J. Wegner, Warszawa w latach Potopu Szwedzkiego 1655-1657 , Wroclaw, 1957, pp. 47-62; by the same author, Szwedzi w Warszawie (1655-1657) , Warszawa, 1936, 77 no.82. 54. Fr. Taudt testified in the Information Process: “... a Patre Wy- szynski nostri Ordinis aliquoties audivi, qualiter quidam Svecus haereticus aegre ferens exhortationis Servi Dei pro conversione eiusdem haeretici ad FidemOrthodoxam factas gladio evaginato ServumDei Stanislaum interficere conabatur, cui Servus Dei col- lum porrexit, Dei tamen opera haereticus idem a suis conatibus destitit.” PP 316 v. This testimony is based on oral tradition handed down by Fr. Wyszynski, but Fr. Wyszynski himself does not mention this in his biography of Fr. Papczynski. He only says: “... in odium Sanctae fidei, gladio aggressus,” VW § 25; Positio 31, footnote 54. Cf. PP 58 r-v, 109 v, 132 v, 174 r, 261 r. 55. “... Socio (licet fuerit Germanus) aufugiente, ego genibus flexis cervicem secandam exhibui, sed Divina providentia factum est, quod nullum vulnus acceperim, licet fuerim ter fortissime ictus, dolorem tamen ingentem fere per horam et dimidiam sustinui.” Testamentum II, § 1, Scripta pp. 133-134; VF § 23, Positio 638. 56.
