Reverendissime in Christo Pater et Domine, domine mihi gratiosissime.

Praemissa mei officiorumque meorum et studiorum omnium paratissimorum in gratiam Reverendissimae Paternitatis Vestrae commendatione officiosa.

Paucis ante diebus, non dicam benevolentiae, sed plurimae gratiae erga me refertae, mihi a Reverendissima Paternitate Vestra oblatae sunt litterae, quod quidem, ut videor, dicere non meritorum meorum neque etiam diuturnae commercionis causa, sed magis e singulari gratia nimiaque erga me benevolentia Reverendissima Paternitas Vestra facere dignatur. Pro tanta igitur gratia et singulari erga me benevolentia dignas, ut par est, si verba suppeterent animo, gratias agere conarer. Sed cum ea ipsa gratia, qua me Reverendissima Paternitas Vestra amplecti dignatur, tanta mi sit, ut ne dicam, gratia, verbo tenus agendo, sed prolixa serie verborum scribendo nullo umquam pacto credam satis me facturum, Deum e superis assiduis precibus solicitabo, ut mihi concedere dignetur, quo pacto non tantum perpetuis, sed etiam paratissimis officiis et servitiis meis rependere conabor.

De novitatibus nihil scitu dignum habebam, quod Reverendissimae Paternitati Vestrae scriptis meis significarem. Hoc licet Reverendissimam Paternitatem Vestram non latere sciebam, omittere tamen nequivi, quin hoc ipsum asserendo Reverendissimae Paternitati Vestrae affirmarem, quod iam huc magnificus dominus Jan Gabriel Tęczyński (*1484 – †1552)⌊palatinus SandomiriensisJan Gabriel Tęczyński (*1484 – †1552)⌋ a[d] sacram Sigismund II Augustus Jagiellon (Zygmunt II August) (*1520 – †1572), 1529-1572 Grand Duke of Lithuania (ruled from 1544); 1530-1572 King of Poland (crowned vivente rege (ruled from 1548, after the death of his father); son of Sigismund I Jagiellon and Bona Sforza⌊regiam maiestatem iunioremSigismund II Augustus Jagiellon (Zygmunt II August) (*1520 – †1572), 1529-1572 Grand Duke of Lithuania (ruled from 1544); 1530-1572 King of Poland (crowned vivente rege (ruled from 1548, after the death of his father); son of Sigismund I Jagiellon and Bona Sforza⌋ pervenerit, precibus omnibus tam a sacra Sigismund I Jagiellon (Zygmunt I) (*1467 – †1548), King of Poland and Grand Duke of Lithuania (1506-1548); Duke of Głogów (Glogau) (1499-1506), Duke of Opava (1501-1506), Governor of Silesia (1504-1506); son of King Kazimierz IV Jagiellon and Elisabeth of Austria⌊[regia] maiestate senioreSigismund I Jagiellon (Zygmunt I) (*1467 – †1548), King of Poland and Grand Duke of Lithuania (1506-1548); Duke of Głogów (Glogau) (1499-1506), Duke of Opava (1501-1506), Governor of Silesia (1504-1506); son of King Kazimierz IV Jagiellon and Elisabeth of Austria⌋, quam a toto Royal Council of Poland ⌊coetu senatorum CoronaeRoyal Council of Poland ⌋ precando, u[t] sacra Sigismund II Augustus Jagiellon (Zygmunt II August) (*1520 – †1572), 1529-1572 Grand Duke of Lithuania (ruled from 1544); 1530-1572 King of Poland (crowned vivente rege (ruled from 1548, after the death of his father); son of Sigismund I Jagiellon and Bona Sforza⌊regia maiestas iuniorSigismund II Augustus Jagiellon (Zygmunt II August) (*1520 – †1572), 1529-1572 Grand Duke of Lithuania (ruled from 1544); 1530-1572 King of Poland (crowned vivente rege (ruled from 1548, after the death of his father); son of Sigismund I Jagiellon and Bona Sforza⌋ ad Diet of Poland ⌊comitia RegniDiet of Poland ⌋ instantia venire dignetur.

De pannis autem, de quibus Reverendissima Paternitas Vestra in scriptis suis mentionem fecit, reverendus dominus praepositus Troczensis nihil mihi retulit, saltem id asseruit Reverendissimam Paternitatem Vestram sibi scripsisse praedictum pannum sibi missurum iri.
