Letter #3890

[Ioannes DANTISCUS] to [Johann TYMMERMANN]
s.l., [1539-08-21 or shortly after]

English register:

Dantiscus reprimands the [Ermland (Warmia)] Chapter for their lack of response to the letter about the peddling of benefices by the cathedral.

He asks that the paternal character and kindly nature of his reprimands be pointed out to the canons. He promises to write more extensively when he is able to entrust the letter to the Allenstein (Olsztyn) administrator [Achatius Trenck].

Postscript:

Non fuisse venerabili capitulo consentaneum vel necessarium, ut litteris meis, qua[rum] misi exemplum, responderet, relinquo in suo sensu, significari tamen non dedecuisset, si illas perceperint nec ne, vel saltem, si honestum habeat ... ecclesiasticis apud ecclesiam mercari.

Ego quidem, quod scribo, non nisi paterno ac optimo scribo animo, cuius integritatem fratribus nostris commend[a]tam esse velim. De quibus aliquando cum Dominatione Vestra per venerabilem dominum administratorem Allensteinensem latius.

Quae iterum bene valeat etc.
