Salutem et omnem felicitatem cum mei ex animo commendatione.

De Citizens of Gdańsk ⌊gentilibus nostris GedanensibusCitizens of Gdańsk ⌋ iamdudum id vereor, quod Dominatio Vestra Reverendissima nunc cf.

Utinam simus non veri vates et utinam saperent et intelligerent ac novissima providerent, ne quod veremur et eorum luxus ac superbia (ne dicam apostasia) meretur, illis accidat nobisque dolendi communem patriam nulla praebeatur occasio. Interea orabimus cum Christo pro illis ad Patrem, ut ignoscat eis, quia nesciunt, quid faciunt.

De ceteris, cum talia sint pleraque omnia, quae litteris vel comprehendi, vel confici nequeant, in communem conventum aut particularem quempiam congressum nostrum supersedendum esse visum est mihi iuxta atque Reverendissimae Dominationi Vestrae.

Nova, quae scriptu digna essent, quaeque Reverendissima Dominatio Vestra ignorare posset, apud me ad praesens non sunt. Unum, quod reliquum est, Reverendissimam Dominationem Vestram salvam et florentem esse, laetamque vivere, ex animo opto et cupio me illius fraterno amori ac benevolentiae commendando.
