miserit, tum quod plus praestat amplissima ista Reverendissimae Paternitatis Vestrae clementia (illustrissimi principis ornamentum), quam expetere audebam, cum Petrus (fl. 1547)filiumPetrus (fl. 1547) istum, immorigerum etiam, paternis amplexibus dignatur. Immo extra caulam ecclesiae errantem non dedignatur, praesertim si fidem promissam re ipsa ratam faceret. Super haec Reverendissima Paternitas Vestra me commonefecit, ne in promissis magnificis simulatio lateret et, dum nunc Curium simulat, postmodum Bacchanalia vivat et nequiter se humiliet, ut subdole fallat. Propterea, ne periculo me imprudens implicarem, serio Petrus (fl. 1547)huncPetrus (fl. 1547) coram generoso domino Reverendissimae Paternitatis Vestrae praefecto Georg von Preucken (Georg von Pröck, Georg von Proyken) (†1549), in 1523, after the death of Ermland bishop Jan Luzjański, he refused to pledge an oath to representatives of Ermland Chapter (Tiedemann Giese and Leonard Niederhof) without royal order, and turned them out of Braunsberg; to 1523 commissioner (komendant) of Heilsberg; in the time of the bishops Fabian of Lusian and Mauritius Ferber wójt of Ermland bishopric; at least in 1525-1549 starosta of Braunsberg (BORAWSKA 1984, p. 156-157; RC, 244, 252; HARTMANN 1525-1550, No. 7, 1142; AAWO, AK, Dok.

Ipse Petrus (fl. 1547)PetrusPetrus (fl. 1547) constanter stipulatus fidem et Georg von Preucken (Georg von Pröck, Georg von Proyken) (†1549), in 1523, after the death of Ermland bishop Jan Luzjański, he refused to pledge an oath to representatives of Ermland Chapter (Tiedemann Giese and Leonard Niederhof) without royal order, and turned them out of Braunsberg; to 1523 commissioner (komendant) of Heilsberg; in the time of the bishops Fabian of Lusian and Mauritius Ferber wójt of Ermland bishopric; at least in 1525-1549 starosta of Braunsberg (BORAWSKA 1984, p. 156-157; RC, 244, 252; HARTMANN 1525-1550, No. 7, 1142; AAWO, AK, Dok.

Kap. R 2/17), et mihi, ne nulla nos caperet dubitatio, quin praestare vellet, quod promitteret, videlicet Reverendissimae Paternitati Vestrae fidem firmam atque oboedientiam perpetuam, praeterea, ubi locorum in dominio Reverendissimae Paternitatis Vestrae utilis esse posset, eo se promptum concedere Reverendissimae Paternitati Vestrae exhibet. Hinc spem concepimus firmam et fiduciam Petrus (fl. 1547)PetrumPetrus (fl. 1547) post lapsum futurum stabiliorem et meliorem.

Tandem oro et obsecro Reverendissimae Paternitatis Vestrae celsitudinem, ut haec scripta mea boni consulat. Cui me ipsum debeo, maxime, cum non sit alius quisquam, cuius officiis me tam esse devinctum non solum fatear, verum etiam gaudeam.

Precor, ut Deus Optimus Maximus Reverendissimam Paternitatem Vestram quam diutissime nobis sua gratia servet incolumem, praesertim in hoc rerum turbine et ecclesiae Catholicae perverso ordine.
