Chrisma etiam Reverendissima Dominatio Vestra nondum assecutis litteris tutius etiam istic seorsum in arce quam hic publice in ecclesia consecrabit. Habet equidem adhuc res nonnihil scrupuli, antea non satis considerati. Munia pontificalia, quibus nunc Reverendissima Dominatio Vestra ecclesiam suam cohonestare instituerat, ad festum Penthecostes et, quoties posthac Dominus inspiraverit, exsequi et hanc intermissionem abunde pensare poterit. De vicariatu vero omnimodo non est opus Reverendissimam Dominationem Vestram esse sollicitam. Si quid praeterea, quam actum est, restat, semotis arbitris transigetur.

Ceterum descripsi in scheda his indita formulam caeremoniarum ad ingressum primum novi pontificis observari consuetarum, si forte Elbing (Elbląg), city in northern Poland, Pomerania, on the Vistula Lagoon, one of the three Great Prussian Cities (beside Gdańsk (Danzig) and Thorn (Toruń)) which had representatives in the Prussian Council; member of the Hanseatic LeagueElbingiElbing (Elbląg), city in northern Poland, Pomerania, on the Vistula Lagoon, one of the three Great Prussian Cities (beside Gdańsk (Danzig) and Thorn (Toruń)) which had representatives in the Prussian Council; member of the Hanseatic League aut alibi ea opus fuerit. Tametsi non dubito eam istic etiam in cancellaria reperiri. Si quid praeterea esset, quo Reverendissimae Dominationi Vestrae inservire et gratificari possem, pronam semper in me inveniet obsequendi voluntatem, modo ne me, quod antea quoque ex a... illegible...... illegible animo rogavi, conventibus publicis aut eorum negotiis mihi profecto ipsa morte acerbioribus oneret aut verius enecet Reverendissima Dominatio Vestra.

Cui et salutem, BCz, 1597, p. 88 et omnes fortunas meas diligenter committo quamque felicem ac semper auctiorem esse cupio.
