Longaevam in Domino prosperitatem et salutem cum sui recommendatione.

Transmitto cum praesentibus Reverendissimae Dominationi Vestrae exemplum suae novae provisionis, in qua erratum, prout notavi, comperio. Sperabam, quod Vestra Reverendissima Dominatio habere debuisset datam a die obitus domini Albert Bischoff (†1529), Ermland canon⌊Alberti BisschoffiAlbert Bischoff (†1529), Ermland canon⌋. Eam solet papa ita dare suis faventibus in beneficiis reservatis et narrare, quod hoc beneficium sedi reservatum, vivente adhuc enim, vel quondam, Albert Bischoff (†1529), Ermland canon⌊AlbertoAlbert Bischoff (†1529), Ermland canon⌋ sibi in pectore suo reservavit, et tunc conferre, cui placet. Sub data uti praefertur et hoc ictu fulminis in causa quadam beneficiali ego Rome (Roma), city in central Italy, on the Tiber river, seat of the Holy See⌊RomaeRome (Roma), city in central Italy, on the Tiber river, seat of the Holy See⌋ succubui, sed data Reverendissimae Dominationis Vestrae est longe posterior et ferme duobus annis post obitum, nec nova provisio quicquam confert. Si collatio ordinaria iure papae ruat, hortatur me Reverendissima Dominatio Vestra, quo ius, quod illi contuli, etiam ipsam in eo servem et tuear.

Reverendissime Domine.

Spero, quod Dominatio Vestra Reverendissima a me aliud non postulabit, quam quod ferat facultas et honestas. Quod valui, candido amore et sincero affectu praestiti, et quantum mea auctoritas valebit, adhuc praestabo. Quae autem et quantum valet adversus renitentiam papae, satis experta est et pro sua prudentia id erudiri valeat Vestra Reverendissima Dominatio. Triennalis tamen pacifica possessio eam ab adversarii vexationibus meo quidem iudicio liberabit nec rem plus anxiam habet, BCz, 1595, p. 492 ex quo in litem intra triennium non tracta sit existimare on the margin⌈existimareexistimare on the margin⌉ quam est necesse et autumo, quod molestator iam nec or me⌈necnec or me⌉ mi(nim)e or nu(n)c⌈mi(nim)emi(nim)e or nu(n)c⌉ citare ausus erit, si saltem in his horis quiete morari volet or valet⌈voletvolet or valet⌉.

Haec in aurem secretam.
