Salutem plurimam ac prompta obsequia mea.

Reverendissime in Christo Princeps ac Domine, domine clementissime.

Ad hunc inclitum conventum Vestrae Celsitudinis et reliquorum statuum mea humilis quidem persona venire debuit ad prosequendam causam, quae nectitur inter mansionarios Gdańsk (Danzig, Dantiscum), city in northern Poland, on the Bay of Gdańsk at the mouth of the Vistula, on the Baltic, the biggest and wealthiest of the three Great Prussian Cities (Gdańsk, Thorn (Toruń), and Elbing (Elbląg)) with representation in the Council of Royal Prussia; a member of the Hanseatic LeagueGedaniGdańsk (Danzig, Dantiscum), city in northern Poland, on the Bay of Gdańsk at the mouth of the Vistula, on the Baltic, the biggest and wealthiest of the three Great Prussian Cities (Gdańsk, Thorn (Toruń), and Elbing (Elbląg)) with representation in the Council of Royal Prussia; a member of the Hanseatic League ad divum Ioannem et tutores liberorum Georgii Vuoynofsky. Sed podagra, quam Juan Luis Vives (*1493 – †1540), Spanish scholar and humanistLudovicus VivesJuan Luis Vives (*1493 – †1540), Spanish scholar and humanist dolosum ac iniquum colluctatorem recte appellat, me sic affecit, ut me in posterum vix longius extra moenia moturus sim. Quam ob rem partes meas venerabili domino Ioanni Crusen delegavi velimque Vestram Celsitudinem suppliciter rogatam, ut respectu pii negotii quod aget, eidem benignas aures pro inclita sua pietate praebere ac tandem ipsi controversiae post varias longas ac multas dilationes debitum finem imponere dignetur. Quod quidem Remunerator omnium bonorum et in hac vita et in futura erga Vestram Celsitudinem abunde compensare non omittet, idque ut fiat, suprascripti mansionarii suas preces pro Vestra Celsitudine ad Deum sedulo fundent. Christus Vestram Celsitudinem communi patriae nostrae quam diutissime incolumem ac felicem conservet.
