Eximie ac Spectate, praeclaraeque eruditionis et doctrinae Vir, Amice carissime,

Salutem et omnem felicitatem etc.

Accepimus superioribus diebus Dominationis Vestrae eruditas veterisque in nos benevolentiae plenas litteras, quibus hucusque ex hoc angulo ab aula nostra satis longe remoti respondere non potuimus. Nacti autem nunc oportunitatem nuntii, noluimus committere, quin Dominationi Vestrae rescriberemus, vel ob id solum, ut intelligat nos consuetudinis, qua familiarissime coniuncti in aula caesareae maiestatis viximus, non esse oblitos, offerentes nos , licet longa sit inter nos locorum intercapedo, quae tamen [a]nimos non disiungit , ubi et in quibuscumque Dominationi Vestrae gratificari ex re atque usu esse possemus, in iis cum effectu non gravate, et ex singulari propensione Dominationi Vestrae responsuros. Quam optime valere optamus.

Ex castro nostro Lubaviensi, XXVIII Septembris MDXXXVII
