Illustris et Magnifice Domine, domine gratiosissime. Humillimam commendationem.

Quod nuper cum familiari meo Fabian Wojanowski (Fabian of Dąbrówka, Fabian Damerau) (†1540), courtier of King Sigismund I Jagiellon and Queen Bona Sforza, German tutor to their son Sigismund II Augustus.

Ea, quae hic egi hactenus et quaecumque de novis rebus obtulerunt, longo volumine ad maiestatem regiam perscripsi, inde Illustritas Vestra omnia habunde intelliget, nolui in his igitur esse morosior.
