From the text:

I meant to finish the alter cloth and send six bottles of wine to Sister Borgia for her dyspepsia. I want to send six bottles of wine to Sister Borgia, Father Connolly, now don't let me forget.

Note, dyspepsia is a digestive ailment, defined as an uncomfortable feeling or burning.... heartburn or gas.
