337 Foundation of a New Religious Order 60. Ibid., § 18, Scripta 91-92. 61. Ibid., 92. The term “retreat house” used here does not describe a retreat house in today’s sense of the word (i.e., a house for guests), but, rather, a “house of recollection,” in which hermits remain cloistered; a house of silence and prayer. 62. An act of donation of a part of the Korabiew hermitage by Stanislaus Krajewski to Fr. Papczynski and his future community ( Cessio Krajewsciana ), October 7, 1673, Positio 337-339. The autograph of the document did not survive to our times. Certi- fied by Fr. Stanislaus at the Warsaw Curia on October 27, 1673, it was kept at the Korabiew archives until it perished, along with other documents, in these Marian archives after the cassation of the order in 1864. A copy attached by Fr. Papczynski to a re- membrance of the foundation in 1675 still exists. Around 1705, when the remembrance was transferred to the Book of Protocol of the Order of Marian Fathers, the aforementioned document was given the title Cessio Kraiewsciana . Even though the original of the Protocol did not survive, the text of the document is known from a copy of the Protocol prepared in 1744. The text, according to the custom accepted in Poland in the 17 th century, is a mixture of Polish and Latin. In Positio , right next to it, its full Latin version was printed, in which the Polish expressions of the original were translated into Latin and the already existing Latin expressions were rendered in cursive. 63. Positio 337. 64. Stanislaus Swiecicki was born around 1630 and, after he had been consecrated bishop, he was appointed archdeacon in 1663, and soon after — Vicar for Warsaw. He held these offices until 1677 when he was transferred to the Diocese of Chelm (in 1675/1676 he was nominated its Ordinary). J. Korytkowski, Pralaci i Kanonicy Metropolii Gnieznienskiej , vol.
