Questa Tavola s'è fatta per l'amore di Dio a similitudine di S. Maria delloreto, dove chi vi ricorre per grazia, n'ha tanta che si satia

This altarpiece was made for the love of God in the likeness of Santa Maria di Loreto, where those who turn to it for grace have so much of it that they are satisfied.

Notes

[a] Rosselli turns from the left/north wall of the church towards the door, where the altar of S. Maria di Loreto was kitty-corner to the Tazzi family altar against the west church wall/retro-facade.
[b] Rosselli notes that these two altars were on either side of the main church door at its west end.
