Erit hic mihi communis laetitia cum Reverendissima Dominatione Vestra, cuius sorori imprecor faustum connubium et fecundos thalamos. Ne tamen nulla re exhilarem convivium, mitto per praesentem quattuor capreolos rogans, ut boni consulat Reverendissima Dominatio Vestra animum meliora nunc non habentis.

Ut bullam iuramenti Reverendissimae Dominationis Vestrae peterem, eo adductus sum, quod onus certificandi papa de praestito iureiurando non iuranti iniunctum est, ut fere solet, sed mihi, qui iuramentum accepi, ad quem etiam bulla est directa, cum in ceteris soleat consecrando dirigi. Ego tamen non aliud, nisi iuramenti exemplum petii, cuius fidem a me aliquando requiri possibile est, de reliquis non laboro.
