Ioannes DANTISCUS do Sigismund I Jagiellon
Heilsberg (Lidzbark Warmiński), 1541-11-16

Regest polski: Przez wzgląd na dobrosąsiedzkie stosunki łączące go z księciem pruskim [Albrechtem Hohenzollernem] Dantyszek wstawia się za nim u króla [Zygmunta I], prosząc o sprawiedliwe rozstrzygnięcie konfliktu o granice między Prusami [Książęcymi] a Wielkim Księstwem Litewskim.
Dantyszek uprasza, by w sprawie tej nie postępować pochopnie i przeprowadzić wszystko zgodnie z dawnymi opisami przebiegu granic. Ich lustrację niejednokrotnie postulował sam książę, który czuje się ograbiany. Sejm Prus Książęcych wysyła w tej sprawie poselstwo do króla. Zdaniem Dantyszka sprawiedliwe potraktowanie poselstwa sprawi, że książę i jego poddani staną się bardziej posłuszni i spokojniejsi, co ma duże znaczenie w niespokojnych czasach.
