Post obsequiorum meorum exhibitionem.

Reverendissime Domine, domine clementissime et gratiose.

Quod Reverendissima Dominatio Vestra litteris nuper ad venerabile Ermland Chapter cathedral chapter based in Frauenburg (Frombork, Varmia)capitulumErmland Chapter cathedral chapter based in Frauenburg (Frombork, Varmia) missis ad custodiae possessionem, quam iam obtinui, mihi dandam consensum gratiose praestiterit, ingentes Reverendissimae Dominationi Vestrae ago gratias.

Quod attinet negotium illud concubinarum, ex quo Kaspar Hannau (Gasparus Hannovius, Kacper Hannow) (*1519 – †1571), Dantiscus' nephew (son of Anna), doctor of both canon and civil law, friend of Marcin Kromer, Bishop of Ermland; his studies in Cracow (1536-1538), and later in Rome (1539-1548), were financed by his uncle; from 1545 Canon of Ermland (Warmia) and Dean of Guttstadt (Dobre Miasto) Collegiate Chapter; from 1547 Canon of Włocławek (ORACKI 1984, p. 84; KOPICZKO 2, p. 108-109)neposKaspar Hannau (Gasparus Hannovius, Kacper Hannow) (*1519 – †1571), Dantiscus' nephew (son of Anna), doctor of both canon and civil law, friend of Marcin Kromer, Bishop of Ermland; his studies in Cracow (1536-1538), and later in Rome (1539-1548), were financed by his uncle; from 1545 Canon of Ermland (Warmia) and Dean of Guttstadt (Dobre Miasto) Collegiate Chapter; from 1547 Canon of Włocławek (ORACKI 1984, p. 84; KOPICZKO 2, p. 108-109) Reverendissimae Dominationis Vestrae in Rome (Roma), city in central Italy, on the Tiber river, seat of the Holy SeeUrbemRome (Roma), city in central Italy, on the Tiber river, seat of the Holy See iturus est, non opus erit aliqua hic, quemadmodum Reverendissima Dominatio Vestra cupit, istius causae supplicationis confectione, nam in Urbe practicis et curiae istius consuetudinis styli, qui quodammodo in annos mutantur, peritis casu in terminis narrato, omnia istic confici sollerter et pro voto facile expediri et obtineri poterint. Ego, ut verum fatear, illius curiae styli paene oblitus sum, alioquin quamvis opus non sit, libenter Reverendissimae Dominationis Vestrae desiderio satisfecissem, quod concernit in spiritualibus vicariatus officium, quod Reverendissima Dominatio Vestra mihi iniungere destinavit.

Si cum gratia Reverendissimae Dominationis Vestrae fieri posset, attento quod ob corporis adversam valetudinem, qua adhuc laboro, forsitan huic officio non satisfacere possem, ut alteri committere di{n}gnaretur, essem acturus gratias, nolim tamen quippiam a me committi, quod Reverendissimam Dominationem Vestram offendere et eius in me propensioni reniti videri posset. In iis enim et in omnibus Reverendissimae Dominationi Vestrae obsecundare et moram(!) gerere, quoad vixero et vires sinant, sedulo paratus ero.
