Reverendissime in Christo pater et domine, amice et frater in Christo carissime et plurimum honorande. Longaevam in Christo prosperitatem et salutem.

Cum diuturno tempore sollicita indagine et animo non mediocriter anxio susceptionem Vestrae Reverendissimae Dominationis hic inditam quaesivissem, tandem eventu inopinato eam repperi et Vestrae Reverendissimae Dominationi remitto gaudeoque profecto, quod me omni suspicione exuere per hanc inventionem valeam. In novis nihil habeo, quod voluptatem afferre Vestrae Reverendissimae Dominationi possit. At si quid apud Reverendissimam Dominationem Vestram exstet et, an sacra regia regia maiestas Lituaniam petierit ... illegible...... illegible et quisnam officium cancellariatus in ea regione apud suam maiestatem gerit, mihi impartiri dignetur Vestra Reverendissima Dominatio. Quam felicem et florentem a Domino Deo servari et ad maiora exaltari opto.
