Etsi plane intelligo, quantum adhuc operis supersit Dominationi Vestrae, non possum tamen adduci, quin ipsam hic exspectem, potest enim, quotiens voluerit, die tota in negotiis transacta crepusculo noctis hic adesse. Praemittat modo aliquem, qui significet adventum suum, ne imparatus et post cenam offendat. Licebit in crastinum redire ad aulam, nec minus tempestive, quam si illic pernoctasset, fruemur interim una deliciis et amoenitate huius villae, quam spondeo sibi non parum written over vunvunumum written over vun placituram. Adiungerem spem alteram alicuius voluptatis, nisi scirem, quam ingentibus curis distrahitur et a su Dominatio Vestra et a sua innata iucunditate sevocatur.

Nos hic interea conquiescimus satis suaviter. Veremur tantum, ne otium istud in somnum evadat denique. Itaque postquam legimus nonnihil, interdum vertamur equo aut cumba, currimus nonnumquam aut, quod frequentius accidit, molliter ambulamus. Sed succedunt omnia tam placide, ut in cursu ipso, quantumvis celeri, videar mihi obdormivisse. Ita procul absunt istae nostrae visitationes a tumultuario turbulenta vestra q(ui)ete, ut nulla ratione possim hic consequi, quin inter omnes curis labores animus quiescat prorsus ac se quasi despondeat. Eam ob rem cogor desiderare aut litteras Dominationis Vestrae aut adventum suum, quem imprimis cupio, sin ad vos redeo. Nequeo enim hanc me diutius perpeti aut sufferre.
