Postquam ex tuis litteris cognovi episcopum te designatum non tam tibi videbar iure gratulari posse, quod tanta dignitate esses auctus, quam mihi primum gaudere, qui sic te colo, ut tuis bonis aequae delecter ac meis. Deinde meliora de nostris temporibus sperare, cum iis viris aliquem locum esse videam, qui prudentia usuque rerum et praeterea singulari doctrina possint, virtute vero maximos honores gerere debeant, nequi enim tu, sed nollo queri et alios vituperare te potius currentem instigabo, ut bonitatae naturae ac disciplinae tuae utaris.
