Letter #3728
Hans von SICKINGEN, Franz Conrad von SICKINGEN, Ulrich von CZETTRITZ & [Cornelis DE SCHEPPER] to Ioannes DANTISCUSInnsbruck, [1532, November or December]
English register:
This short letter, in three different hands, seems to have been written during a carousal. Hans von Sickingen, Franz Conrad von Sickingen and Ulrich von Czettritz send greetings – in German – to Dantiscus. De Schepper, who is less drunk, writes in Latin on behalf of the others. He comments on their cheerful party and promises that Nibschitz will verbally convey the message of the Sickingen brothers to Dantiscus.

Reliqua dominus Ioannes et Franciscus Conrardus de Sichingen commiserunt dicenda domino Nyptzitz et, cum non possent propter vinum scribere, commiserunt mihi, ut magis sobrio. Glandes habent et grandes magis pro mulieribus quam pro aliis. Et sic vino et laetitia orig. letitia⌈laetitialaetitia orig. letitia⌉ ebrii haec orig. hec⌈haechaec orig. hec⌉ responsa remittunt. Si notas, manum intelliges, non esse sobrios.
