Si forte est, quod coram illi committere volet Reverendissima Dominatio Vestra, illic curandum. Ablegabo hunc, quamprimum parata habebit Reverendissima Dominatio Vestra, quae ille perferre debet. Cum legerit Reverendissima Dominatio Vestra in formula commissionis locum, qui ad dominum palatinum attinet, mox intelliget, cur eum in modum instituerim negotium et quid alio respiciens consulam. Verum an succedet, dubito. Captandae sunt nobis quaevis occasiones occupandi consilia, ne eveniat, quod nuper post obitum castellani Elbingensis.

Commendo me amori solito Reverendissimae Dominationis Vestrae, quam Dominus Deus in productissimam aetatem salvam servet et incolumem.
