Reverendissime Domine. Eas quadringentas marcas, prout in commissis habui, spectabili domino Iacobo Helwych, civi Gdanensi, numeratas dedi, ipso die inventionis sancti Stephani, recepto ab eo recognitionis chirographo eoque instanti litteras ad Reverendissimam Paternitatem Vestram dedi istius facti executionem significantes. Frumentorum hiemalium hoc anno ut praeterito aequalis crescentia fuit satis competens, aestivalia vero nimio calore exusta pauca provenerunt. Ex praediis et annonis, quanto velocius poterit summa diligentia, frumenta in opido Grawdnytz ad granarium reponenda, de Lobaw, Plowesze, Fredeck et Raden faciam duci, ex Papaw vero et Aldenhaws in Culmen et ex eisdem locis, foro facto, pro meliori commodo Reverendissimae Paternitatis Vestrae per eundem mercatorem, cui addicta sunt et vendita fuerint, navigio in Gedanum demittantur. Ea tamen summa LXX lastarum provisione bona et necessaria castrorum et praediorum praehabita vix esse poterit, nec pro tam brevi future quadragesimae termino omnia congregari et mercatori emensurari possunt, quia frumentorum trituratio in praediis ob pabula pecorum conservanda fieri solet usque in aestatem et subditorum Vestrae Reverendissimae Paternitatis vectura multum difficilius erit ob malam viam. Tamen omni studio, omni diligentia operam dabo, ut tanto maior summa vendatur frumentorum et ad loca deputata eo ocius deducatur. Census Reverendissimae Paternitatis Vestrae quam primum ex integro collectus fuerit, dabitur pro festo Epiphaniarum proximo in manus domini Georgii Multis, factoris dominorum Fuggarorum, Thoroniae recepto ab eodem recognitionis chirographo. Organista Bartholomeus illa opera organorum complere differt, postulat sibi maius superaddi pretium, quam pro parva marca, prout tunc usque solvendi fuit, conductus est. Nunc maiorem marcam habere cupit per XX grossos computandam. In ea re Reverendissima Dominatio Vestra me informare dignetur, quid sit agendum.

Nepotes Reverendissimae Paternitatis Vestrae bonis studiis AAWO, AB, D. 67, f. 101v et virtutibus in Culmen exercitantur, impensa Reverendissimae Paternitatis Vestrae bene provisi. Illustrissimus et reverendissimus princeps Iohannes Albertus marchio Brandeburgensis etc. si in dominium Reverendissimae Paternitatis Vestrae venerit, cunctis necessariis una cum suis pro maiori facultate honorabitur, pro voto Reverendissimae Paternitatis Vestrae. Hic in episcopatu circa castra et praedia omnia recte aguntur. Culmenze tamen oppidum, quod bonum censum dare solebat, ex infortunio ignis incendio consumptum est. Miseri incolae paene omni substantia sua sunt privati. Deus omnipotens eorum inopiae subvenire dignetur.

Lutheriana secta praesertim in civitatibus et oppidis aboleri et extingui non potest, in dies maiores resumit vires. Ex prava apostatarum inductione oboedientia spernitur, ius spirituale minuitur, cultus divinus vilescit, annonae male solvuntur. Quamvis regiae maiestatis mandatum habetur, palatinus tamen Culmensis in eius executione est tepidus et minus curat, frequenter per processus monentur, excommunicati denuntiantur, omnia vilipendunt ex illo infelici errore. Deus altissimus auferat ab eis cor lapideum et innovare dignetur spiritum rectum in visceribus eorum. Nos omnes hic omni conatu resistimus, ne magis ille error invalescat in commune discrimen animarum omnium christifidelium.

Cum his eandem Reverendissimam Paternitatem Vestram felicissime valere exopto in Nesthereos usque annos, ad nos in brevi Deo duce reddituram, pro cuius incolumitate Deum continue deprecor.

Reverendissime in Christo Pater et Domine, domine gratiosissime et colendissime.

Obsequia debita cum sui commendatione offert.

Fui Thoroniae ipso die Veneris XII Ianuarii, mandata Reverendissimae Paternitatis Vestrae exsequendo, ubi imprimis dominum Iacobum contionatorem aggressus sum, omnia ei ex ordine obiciendo. De eo dicta, opera bona non ex integro fieri, negavit. Licet aliquando contrarium praedicaverit, brevibus sibi responsum est, quod opera bona necessario fieri debent pro misericordia Dei consequenda, quia, licet Christus pro omnibus satisfecit, non tamen ob id licentiam nobis concessit delinquendi. Nosque quotidie delinquimus et gravissimis peccatis nostris Deum offendimus, ideo continue operibus bonis, elemosinis, orationibus etc. ex pura cordis contritione et compunctione misericordiam divinam implorare debemus pro delictorum venia consequenda. Quod processionibus et turificationibus aliisque caeremoniis non interesset, respondit se facere id non ex contemptu aut contumacia aliqua, sed quia resideret apud ecclesiam sancti Iacobi in novo oppido et beneficium ibi haberet, ideo in ecclesia divi Iohannis non posset continuo adesse. Ad haec sibi responsum, quod hic teneret ambonem, hic populum doceret in eademque ecclesia beneficiatus esset, plus teneretur hic adesse, quam ibi. Et ut sermone peracto interdum duraret usque in finem missae pro meliori suorum auditorum exemplo et reformatione, ut verbo et exemplo doceret populum sibi creditum, de quo rationem redditurus est in districto Dei iudicio, promisit tandem alternatis vicibus interesse. Pro animabus Christifidelium Deum exorandum esse, prout sanctus Augustinus facit mentionem, quod in quadam synodo, videlicet Toletano, per sanctos patres statutum sit, firmiter observandum, quod in qualibet missa fieri debet memoria pro defunctis, prout antea dudum observatum fuit; item de Iuda Machabaeo dictum est sibi on the margindictum est sibidictum est sibi on the margin, quod miserit Ierosolymam triginta libras argenti ad exorandum pro defunctis, recte de resurrectione sentiens; item ex evangelio de debitore misso in carcerem, quod inde non exiret, donec redderet rationem usque ad minimum quadrantem etc., ad quae idem dominus Iacobus nihil respondit; finaliter tamen pollicitus est se emendare. Utinam sincero animo et puro corde ex instinctu boni spiritus id facere valeat, fructus sui sermonis afferendo bonos.

Fratrum minorum praedicatorem accessi similiter, cui singula de eo dicta in praesentia sui custodis et dominorum plebani et Iohannis Coldytz in faciem obieci, eum de sua sinistra et mala AAWO, AB, D. 68, f. 54v doctrina redarguendo. Qui omnia constantissime negare conatus est, prout mos est illorum hominum, qui omnia negatione evadere volunt, quamvis communis de eis vulgatur fama. Quem tandem suus pater custos spopondit debite institu<e>re pro communi salute Christifidelium. Exspectandum ergo videtur per aliquot tempus, si se emendare voluerit. Holsth, civis Thoronensis, post monitionem cum excommunicatione contra eum datam, ut infra triduum produceret sufficientia documenta de dispensatione sibi facta super illicito matrimonio, eo quod fratris sui duxerit coniugem, me personaliter in domo plebani accessit, et appellationem sibi concedi ad Reverendissimam Paternitatem Vestram postulavit, quae sibi denegari licite non potuit, estque sibi assignatus terminus infra hinc et festum purificationis Mariae proximum. Terminum adeo brevem sibi assignavi, Reverendissime Domine, ne per dilationes quaereret evasiones in aliorum Christifidelium scandalum et perniciosum exemplum. Certumque est, quod nullam desuper dispensationem habeat, eo quod eam ibi in loco non ostendit. Senatui Thoronensi sunt oblati articuli per summum pontificem condemnati, et superiori tempore sacrae maiestatis regiae mandatum etiam desuper habuerunt. Ideo nequeunt aliquam eius rei praetendere ignorantiam. Velim omnia pro laude Dei Omnipotentis et voto Reverendissime paternitatis vestre esse expedita, cum debita emenda errorum. Cum his me gratiae Vestrae Reverendissimae Paternitatis committo et commendo. Quam felicissime et diutissime valere exopto.

Reverendissime in Christo Pater et Domine, domine gratiosissime et colendissime.

Famulatus sui debiti una cum humili ad Deum prece praehabitis.

Reverendissimam Paternitatem Vestram oro obnixe dignetur ex sua singulari clementia me miserum, iam senio gravatum et viribus poene destitutum, qui iam in hoc extremo vitae suae termino quietiorem vitam in suae animae salutem habere summe exopto dignetur me on the margindignetur medignetur me on the margin ab hoc gravi et molestissimo officio vicariatus sub suo istius episcopatus regimine me gratiose absolvere et exonerare ut dominus meus benignissimus. Fui enim, Reverendissime Domine, in eo officio trium reverendissimorum dominorum episcoporum Culmensium per XXXIIII annorum decursum vicarius et gravi officio occupatus, et oneratus. Iam tandem respirare cupio. Non libenter velim a quarto reverendissimo domino in eo officio inveniri. Itaque iterum atque iterum humillime oro, me ab eodem officio Reverendissima Paternitas Vestra ex sua singulari gratia et pietate absolvere dignetur. Alteri iuniori magis idoneo hoc onus imponendo habitura Reverendissima Paternitas Vestra pro eo a misericordia divina perpetuum mercedem meque pro ea consequenda in mea licet indigna oratione precatorem.

Cum his Reverendissimam Paternitatem Vestram felicissime in longissimum aevum conservandam divinae clementiae committo.
