Alfonso de VALDÉS to Ioannes DANTISCUS
[Brussels?], [1531, autumn?]

English register:

Valdés sent Dantiscus’ letter to the archdeacon to find out what his reply should be. The archdeacon cannot come because he has been invited to dinner by the marquis of Villafranca. Things will be arranged differently, however, if Dantiscus so commands. Valdés sends Dantiscus the meat that he found tasty, the rest has been given to Barensis who is having master de Furias to dinner.


            received [1531?, autumn?]

Salutem.

Misi tuum epistolium ad nostrum archidiaconum, ut quid respondere deberem, ex eo pernoscerem. Ait se ad prandium apud marchionem Villefromchum invitatum ad te nullo pacto, quod dolet, venire posse. Fiet tamen alias, cum tu iubebis. Carnem illam, quam dicis tibi placuisse, ad te mitto. Reliquum cessit Barrensi, qui dominum de Furias in prandio habet.

Vale.
