La otra pared desaparecía detrás de sus Biblias y sus libros en latín, portugués, italiano y español, amén de dos estantes de libros y folletos japoneses con devocionarios y catecismos de todas clases, trabajosamente traducidos al japonés por los jesuítas, y por último dos libros de un valor inestimable: la primera Gramática portuguesa-japonesa, obra impresa seis años antes y en la que el padre Sancho Alvarez trabajó toda la vida, y el increíble Diccionario portugués-latin-japonés, impreso el año anterior en caracteres romanos así como en escritura hiragana.
The other wall was lined with his Bibles and his books, in Latin, Portuguese, Italian, and Spanish. And, from the Society's own movable-type press at Nagasaki that he had ordered and brought at so much cost from Goa ten years ago, two shelves of Japanese books and pamphlets: devotional books and catechisms of all sorts, translated with painstaking labor into Japanese by Jesuits; works adapted from Japanese into Latin to try to help Japanese acolytes learn that language; and last, two small books that were beyond price, the first Portuguese-Japanese grammar, Father Sancho Alvarez's life's work, printed six years ago, and its companion, the incredible Portuguese-Latin-Japanese dictionary printed last year in Roman letters as well as hiragana script.
