Quae iussit cultellis scindi et destrui; et cum hoc illius servi facerent, quaesitum est ab eis, cur picturas lacerarent. Responderunt, quod nullus Polonorum esset dignus, ut aliquod insigne ferret, et multa alia, quae tamen illi a plerisque magis ad insaniam, quam ad industriam, de qua plurimum gloriatur, sunt imputata. Et cum a sculptore illius effigies in lignum esset sculpta, ut aliae adinstar ex aere vel plumbo funderentur, reliquit hoc lignum in mensa cum aliis rebus et libellis. Nocte venerant mures et ex illius simulacro nares, os et barbam corroserunt. Fertur impense indignatus dixisse „Nonne erant in propinquo candelae, casei, libelli? Quis daemon mures in meam faciem impellit? Non possum aliud credere, quin ex Polonia huc venerint, ubi et catellis et muribus sum exosus”. Et, ut est levis et inconstans, interdum laudabat, interdum vituperabat Polonos. In hoc tamen fuit solitus Polonos commendare asserens, quod si videret in uno campo pari numero Anglicos et Polonos, et utrosque suis armis utentes, mallet esse cum Polonis, quam Anglicis, plus Polonis roboris et peritiae militaris tribuens. Haec a doctore Michaele Sandeci(!) decano Wratislaviensi accepi, qui cum illo hic longam habuit consuetudinem. Is mihi etiam dixit, quod ab eo intellexisset magistrum generalem cum marchione Casimiro quasdam habere simultates, quas uterque dissimulat, et quod cum cardinale Salczburgensi non sint contenti, quem suspectum habent, quod plus partibus Sacratissimae Maiestatis Vestrae, quam illis sit affectus. Hoc hinc credo, quia cardinalis aucupatur, ut scripsi ex Nurumberga, quae pars ei plus sit datura, et isti non habent, quod dent. Rettulit etiam mihi idem doctor Theodericum sibi magnam spem de archiepiscopo Strigoniensi polliceri, quod ego qualiter aestimare debeam, nescio, quodque potissimam fiduciae suae partem, si res ad cognitionem pervenerit, in abbatem de Fulda ponant, qui ordinis in hac causa debet esse procurator, certam sibi de tota Prussia recuperanda promittens victoriam. Multa praeterea fabulis anilibus similia, quae, ne huiusmodi ineptiis sim morosior, et ut finem semel de hoc pseudolo faciam, praetereo.

Mora haec, si erit longior, non solum me magis anxium, sed etiam, qui iam in aula Serenissimae Maiestatis Vestrae canescere coepi, totum canum reddet.

Continui hic apud me interpretem meum Anglicanum hactenus; nolui eum dimittere, donec me navem ascendentem videret, ut cum certitudine me esse in navigatione istae meae litterae ad Sacratissimam Maiestatem Vestram pervenirent. Cum vero neque nautis neque mihi spes est ex certissimis coniecturis, propter continuas pluvias, grandines et horrendas tempestates, quod hoc mense prosperum ventum habere poterimus, non potui eum propter has meas litteras, ut tutius per illum London (Londinium), city in England, on the Thames riverLundinumLondon (Londinium), city in England, on the Thames river perferrentur, diutius detinere.

Quapropter Maiestati Vestrae Sacratissimae humillime supplico, moram hanc quam invitus et sub duro hoc taedio ago, clementer perpendat et mei ulterius rationem habeat.

De reditu meo, cum adhuc medium itineris non confecerim, nihil certi augurari possum.

Quae hic nova feruntur, non sunt undiquaque certa, cum hic in fine huius mundi procul a curia regis spargantur. Paulo ante dicebatur, quod fuerit inter caesaris et regis Angliae exercitus et Gallos magnus conflictus; quis vero vicerit, erat adhuc dubium. Nuper venerunt alia, quod amiralis regis Angliae cum suo exercitu redierit ex Francia et gentes ad hiemandum circa Calisium deposuerit, et quod per centum miliaria Gallica in Gallia ingentia damna igne et ferro fecerit sine ulla Gallorum resistentia. De conflictu nihil, quodque gentes caesaris se etiam pro hac hieme in Flandria locaverint, et quomodo se tam caesariani, quam etiam Angli, pro futuro vere rebus omnibus bellum spectantibus contra Gallos parent, et quod caesar et rex Angliae in propriis personis contra Gallos debeant proficisci. Venerunt huc ante aliquot dies novem naves ex Hispania et Portugalia bene armatae, quae ad Antverpiam tendunt. Dicebatur a mercatoribus, qui in illis erant, quod caesar esset in Valdolit civitate non procul a Burgis, et quod strictam faceret iustitiam de illis, qui in Hispania rebellarunt, misissetque non contemnendum exercitum ex Hispania ad recuperandum civitatem Baionam in Piscania, quam Gallus, dum hinc caesar traiceret, ceperat. Sed postquam exercitus iste propter munitiones a Gallis factas nihil proficeret, in circuitu et finibus Galliae hostiliter saevitum est. Et quod caesar pro vere futuro ex Hispania omnes suos conatus et vires contra Gallos exponet. Ex Italia dux Prospero Colonna (*ca. 1460 – †1523)Prosper ColumnaProspero Colonna (*ca. 1460 – †1523) ab alio latere cum valido exercitu mittetur, ex Germania versus Lothoringiam delectus habebuntur, ut sic ab omni parte Galliam adoriatur. Neque deponere intendit arma donec regem Galliae aut humiliorem aut exulem reddat.

Redierunt huc etiam duae naves armatae, quae oratores serenissimi regis Angliae in Hispaniam vexerant. Milites ex illis dicunt, quod inter eundum sex naves Gallicas obviam habuissent, cum quibus dum per integrum diem et noctem conflictationes fecissent, unam ex illis tormentis sic perforarunt, quod nequaquam subsistere potuit; unde potiores homines captivos abduxerunt et viliores animas cum nave merserunt, reliquas vero in fugam verterunt. Dicitur etiam, quod ante aliquot dies ex portu Coruña, city in northern Spain, GaliciaCoroniaCoruña, city in northern Spain, Galicia, ad quem ego tendo, navis una a The French GallisThe French fuerit recepta hominibus cumba ex illa ad litus fugientibus, et quod Gallicanae naves, plures hoc tempore, hinc inde in mari vagantes in dies videantur, consuliturque mihi, quod inter navigandum non in utramque aurem dormiam, ne a Gallis capiar. Qui tales sunt, quod neque amicis in mari parcant, suo stipendio militantes, quaecumque offendunt, si possunt, capiunt, depraedantur, trucidant, et, ne sciatur, naves perfossas in profundum demittunt. Fecerunt his diebus in quibusdam insulis ad regem Angliae spectantibus praeter hominum opinionem illas ingressi ingentia damna. Et hoc Plymouth (Pleumodia), city and seaport in SW England, DevonoppidumPlymouth (Pleumodia), city and seaport in SW England, Devon bene dives, opportunissimum ad istam partem habens portum sibi non parum timet. Neque hic in portu sum satis tutus, nam murum non habet, sed castrum est ad mare situm. Et in litore, ubi portui naves applicant, machinas aliquot disposuerunt incolae, quae tamen, si decem armatae naves hostiles se huc inferrent, parum vel nihil earum cursum impedirent. Sum igitur, quandocumque hinc Deo propitio solvero, tum maris, tum hostium formidine in periculo, quod nihilominus, modo optata se aura offerat, ut fidelis servus Sacratissimae Maiestatis Vestrae alacer subibo.

Habuit me 1522-11-10hodie1522-11-10 in prandio praelatus dives doctor et Oxoniensis ecclesiae vicarius in spiritualibus generalis, qui nuper ex London (Londinium), city in England, on the Thames riverLondinoLondon (Londinium), city in England, on the Thames river huc venit. Dixit mihi, quod rex Scotiae his diebus cum rege Angliae, qui illius ex sorore nepos est, de pace firma post duorum mensium indutias convenire in Anglia debeat, et quod inter eos etiam contra Gallos liga fiet. Dicitur etiam, quod Rhodos obsideatur adhuc a Turcis et caesarem cum rege Portugaliae Rhodianis commeatum et suppetias cum aliquot bonis navibus misisse; et quod rex Portugaliae Iohannes habens XXII annos apud pontificem laboret, quod suam novercam Leonoram caesaris sororem in coniugem ducere possit. Feruntur plura alia plus quam fabulosa, quibus Sacratissimae Maiestati Vestrae nolui esse morosior.

Deus Optimus Maximus faxit, ut ex aula maiestatis caesareae brevi, quemadmodum cupio et spero, certiora describere possim. Commendo me suppliciter Sacratissimae Maiestati Vestrae ut domino meo clementissimo et rogo longae et durae meae servitutis aliquando per occasionem clementem dignetur habere rationem.
