Venerabilis Domine amice in Christo dilecte. Salutem in Domino.

Mittimus vobis resignationem, quemadmodum voluistis, quod vero tempus usque post festa Pascatis protraximus, ea ratione factum est, quod tum primum totius anni proventus penduntur, neque indignum putabitis , quod commendarius noster tam diu in officio [e]t domo parrochiali mansurus sit, quousque pro totius anni labore suum pro nobis habere possit praemium. Bene vale[te].

Christus Vestram Celsitudinem communi patriae nostrae quam diutissime incolumem ac felicem conservet.
