Hodie duas venas sub lingua incidere curabo consilio cyrurgici et medici praefati. Rationem bonam gratia Deo habeo nec dolorem ullum sentio, mentis ... conceptum saltem intelligibiliter exprimere nequeo, quod impedimentum me turbat non mediocriter atque maerore afficit.

Confido et committo me Deo, qui mihi vitam tribuit et servare potest. Mortalem me scio eamque evitare nequeam, una communis est omnibus.

Hoc significo amico carissimo, quem decet noscere et prospera et adversa amici, et ut florentem me videat, Deum precor, taliter qualiter, nescio et quomodo.
