Reverendissime domine, domine mi frater carissime et observandissime.

Litterae Vestrae Reverendissimae Dominationis per hunc famulum eius, qui has defert, redditae sunt mihi in itinere, nihil nisi sincerum Paternitatis Vestrae Reverendissimae in me amorem continentes. Ad quas non calamo, sed corde ipso respondebo et amantem me candide reamabo Paternitatem Vestram Reverendissimam. Cui hoc adnuntiare volui, quod huc ad sedem episcopatus mei Domino propitio heri applicuerim, numquam maiore honore et comitatus et exceptus, quod divinae clementiae, non meis meritis tribuo. Nam praeter alios, qui me huc conduxerunt, accurrit et illustris dominus meus Łukasz Górka (Łukasz of Górka) (*1482 – †1542), 1499-1507 Castellan of Spycimierz; 1507-1511 Castellan of Ląd; 1508-1535 General Starost of Wielkopolska; 1511-1535 Castellan of Poznań; 1535-1537 Voivode of Poznań; 1538 Bishop of Włocławek (PSB 8, p. 409-412)palatinus PosnaniensisŁukasz Górka (Łukasz of Górka) (*1482 – †1542), 1499-1507 Castellan of Spycimierz; 1507-1511 Castellan of Ląd; 1508-1535 General Starost of Wielkopolska; 1511-1535 Castellan of Poznań; 1535-1537 Voivode of Poznań; 1538 Bishop of Włocławek (PSB 8, p. 409-412) et mecum hic agit, hinc recta iturus Thorn (Toruń, Thorunium), city in northern Poland, on the Vistula river in its lower reaches, main residence of the bishops of Kulm (Chełmno); one of the three Great Prussian Cities (along with Gdańsk and Elbing) which had representatives in the Council of Royal Prussia; a member of the Hanseatic LeagueToruniumThorn (Toruń, Thorunium), city in northern Poland, on the Vistula river in its lower reaches, main residence of the bishops of Kulm (Chełmno); one of the three Great Prussian Cities (along with Gdańsk and Elbing) which had representatives in the Council of Royal Prussia; a member of the Hanseatic League.
