Magnifico Domino et domino Krzysztof Szydłowiecki (*1466 – †1532), one of the most trusted advisors of the King Sigismund I Jagiellon; 1497-1507 Marshal of the court of prince Sigismund Jagiellon, Cracow master of pantry; 1507-1510 court treasurer; 1509 castellan of Sandomierz; 1511 Vice-Chancellor of the Crown; 1515 - grand chancellor; 1515-1527 Voivode of Cracow; 1515 - Starost; 1527-1532 - Castellan⌊[Chri]stofero de SchidlowieczKrzysztof Szydłowiecki (*1466 – †1532), one of the most trusted advisors of the King Sigismund I Jagiellon; 1497-1507 Marshal of the court of prince Sigismund Jagiellon, Cracow master of pantry; 1507-1510 court treasurer; 1509 castellan of Sandomierz; 1511 Vice-Chancellor of the Crown; 1515 - grand chancellor; 1515-1527 Voivode of Cracow; 1515 - Starost; 1527-1532 - Castellan⌋ Palatino et Capitaneo Generali Cracoviensi [etc.] Regni Poloniae Cancellario, domino meo gratiosissimo.

Magnifice et Gratiosissime Domine. Humillimam servitiorum commendationem.

Cum certo sciam ea in notitiam Magnificentiae Vestrae ventura, quae ad longum serenissimae regiae maiestati descripsi, nolui prolixis meis litteris Magnificentiae Vestrae esse morosior, sed illa in compendium conferre, in quibus gratia et adminiculo Magnificentiae Vestrae plurimum egeo. Cum adhuc totus essem caesarianus, nulla mihi cum domino Antonio Rincone potuit esse consuetudo, qua de re cum nuper in curia christianissimi regis Franciae cum ipso domino Antonio multa sum locutus, obtinui ab eo, ne hanc meam inofficiositatem, si dici potest, aegre ferret. Rogavitque me cum aliquando ad Magnificentiam Vestram scriberem, illi eum summopere commendarem. Unde postquam hac in aula mihi est immorandum et salvus conductus, quem a Francis I of Valois (*1494 – †1547), 1515-1547 King of France; son of Charles, Count of Angoulême, and Louise of Savoy⌊rege christianissimoFrancis I of Valois (*1494 – †1547), 1515-1547 King of France; son of Charles, Count of Angoulême, and Louise of Savoy⌋ habui, evanuit, alius mihi pro reditu erit impetrandus, pro quo a Sigismund I Jagiellon (Zygmunt I) (*1467 – †1548), King of Poland and Grand Duke of Lithuania (1506-1548); Duke of Głogów (Glogau) (1499-1506), Duke of Opava (1501-1506), Governor of Silesia (1504-1506); son of King Kazimierz IV Jagiellon and Elisabeth of Austria⌊maiestate regiaSigismund I Jagiellon (Zygmunt I) (*1467 – †1548), King of Poland and Grand Duke of Lithuania (1506-1548); Duke of Głogów (Glogau) (1499-1506), Duke of Opava (1501-1506), Governor of Silesia (1504-1506); son of King Kazimierz IV Jagiellon and Elisabeth of Austria⌋ ad illum regem litteras petii et a Magnificentia Vestra alias ad dominum Antonium peto, quibus ille facilius operam suam apud maiestatem christianissimam impenderet, ut liber mihi transitus per France (Gallia, Francia), the kingdom⌊GalliamFrance (Gallia, Francia), the kingdom⌋ in reditu daretur. Dominus Antonius de mea erga illum excusatione fuit contentus, quae haec fuit. Eo tempore cum esset apud nos, mihi fuit incognitum, quid nomine regis sui apud serenissimum regem nostrum tractaret, cum autem postea mihi res haec in notitiam venisset, praesertim de ista coniunctione et affinitate utrimque composita, non potui nisi illi favere, cui serenissimus dominus meus bene vellet, quo fieret, si prius illi fortassis fuissem adversus, nunc velim deinceps illi semper esse addictus. Collaudavit hanc purgationem meam et se posthac ea de re numquam mecum expostulaturum promisit. Quomodo a christianissimo Francis I of Valois (*1494 – †1547), 1515-1547 King of France; son of Charles, Count of Angoulême, and Louise of Savoy⌊Galliarum regeFrancis I of Valois (*1494 – †1547), 1515-1547 King of France; son of Charles, Count of Angoulême, and Louise of Savoy⌋ fuerim exceptus et quam humaniter ab illius maiestate in Lyon (Lugdunum), city in east-central France, on the Rhône and Saône rivers, one of the most important printing and publishing centers in early modern Europe⌊LugdunoLyon (Lugdunum), city in east-central France, on the Rhône and Saône rivers, one of the most important printing and publishing centers in early modern Europe⌋ habitus aliquando coram referam.
