Reverendissime in Christo Pater, eximie domine Praesul, domine gratiose. Obsequia nostra indefessa sint Reverendissimae Paternitati Vestrae quam officiosissime praemissa. Reverendissime ac gratiose domine.

Non est incognitum, de quibus respectibus istinc eiecta fuerit Anna Schilling Anna SchillingsAnna Schilling , famula olim, dum esset in humanis, venerabilis domini Nicolaus Copernicus (Mikołaj Kopernik) (*1473 – †1543), humanist, physician and astronomer, doctor of canon law; nephew of Łukasz Watzenrode, Bishop of Ermland; 1497-1543 Canon of Ermland (Warmia); 1511-1513, 1520, 1524-1525, 1529 Chancellor of the Ermland Chapter; 1523 General Administrator of the bishopric after the death of Fabian von Lusian (Luzjański) (KOPICZKO 2, p. 161; SBKW, p. 123-124)doctoris NicolaiNicolaus Copernicus (Mikołaj Kopernik) (*1473 – †1543), humanist, physician and astronomer, doctor of canon law; nephew of Łukasz Watzenrode, Bishop of Ermland; 1497-1543 Canon of Ermland (Warmia); 1511-1513, 1520, 1524-1525, 1529 Chancellor of the Ermland Chapter; 1523 General Administrator of the bishopric after the death of Fabian von Lusian (Luzjański) (KOPICZKO 2, p. 161; SBKW, p. 123-124). Nunc per intervalla huc videtur commigrare atque per aliquot dies subsistere rerum suarum, ut praetendere dicitur, curandarum causa. Nam habet hic adhuc domum, quam etiam hesterna die fertur vendidisse. Et nonnihil dubitamus, an iure de ingressu poterit prohiberi, legitimo cessante impedimento. Remota siquidem causa removetur et effectus. De his tamen noluimus quicquam constituere, nisi Reverendissima Paternitas Vestra, ut coram cuius tribunali haec causa principio est ventilata, desuper prius requisita, quae nos de Suae Reverendissimae Paternitatis deliberatione non gravabitur certiores facere, quam aeterno Deo in longum saeculum commendamus incolumem.
