Reverendissime Domine, domine et benefactor gratiose.

De mea periculosa miseria nondum possum bene sperare, solito enim more torqueor. Doctores dicunt esse continuum catarrhum cum oppilationibus hepatis. Quicquid id est, certe 9 his elapsis septimanis multum sum defatigatus. Reliqui Gdańsk (Danzig, Dantiscum), city in northern Poland, on the Bay of Gdańsk at the mouth of the Vistula, on the Baltic, the biggest and wealthiest of the three Great Prussian Cities (Gdańsk, Thorn (Toruń), and Elbing (Elbląg)) with representation in the Council of Royal Prussia; a member of the Hanseatic League⌊GedanumGdańsk (Danzig, Dantiscum), city in northern Poland, on the Bay of Gdańsk at the mouth of the Vistula, on the Baltic, the biggest and wealthiest of the three Great Prussian Cities (Gdańsk, Thorn (Toruń), and Elbing (Elbląg)) with representation in the Council of Royal Prussia; a member of the Hanseatic League⌋ et rusticor obambulando et obequitando, raro sine febricula et continua tusse. Quando autem hinc abeundum erit, nondum intelligere possum. Utinam Deus meus tandem mei misereatur, ut finem bonum habere possim.

Commendo me et servitia mea Vestrae Dominationi Reverendissimae, quae feliciter valeat.

Eiusdem Dominationis Vestrae Reverendissimae servus perpetuus Fabian Wojanowski (Fabian of Dąbrówka, Fabian Damerau) (†1540), courtier of King Sigismund I Jagiellon and Queen Bona Sforza, German tutor to their son Sigismund II Augustus. In 1531 he went back to his family name Damerau; Dantiscus' companion on his mission to Emperor Charles V and his successor as a royal envoy at the Imperial court; 1539-1540 Canon of Ermland (Warmia) (from 1538 coadiutor of Henryk von Snellenberg by Dantiscus' patronage) (KOPICZKO 2, p. 49; SBKW, p. 37)⌊Fabianus DamerauFabian Wojanowski (Fabian of Dąbrówka, Fabian Damerau) (†1540), courtier of King Sigismund I Jagiellon and Queen Bona Sforza, German tutor to their son Sigismund II Augustus.
