Unde cum inter omnes alios illius illustritas maiestati caesareae esset acceptior et in quem plurimum confideret, pro sua fide, qua maiestati caesareae devincitur, velit apud illam dare operam, ut huiusmodi sequestrum deponeretur, et ut serenissima domina regina in integrum restitueretur; ne inde Serenissima Maiestas Vestra, quae nunc magis, quam umquam ante, cum infidelibus occuparetur, graviorem animum conciperet, unde forsan cogeretur pacta et foedera, cum Turcis praesertim, inire, toti rei publicae Christianae plurimum nociva; perpenderetque, cum Turcus a parte nostra esset securus nec a nobis quicquam metueret, quo arma et vires suas foret conversurus? Quod facili posset coniectura consequi, Italia enim et Sicilia citra et ultra pharum illi esset vicina, praecipue his intestinis bellis sic stantibus. Perpenderet etiam, quod Serenissima Maiestas Vestra maiestatem caesaream omni semper amore atque observantia, quod clare in electione est testata, prosequitur, et quod illi inter alios amicos non vulgaris est et esse semper potest, daretque operam, ne istiusmodi amor et observantia per tam insignem iniuriam corrumperetur, immo potius efficeret, ut status iste Barensis serenissimae coniugi Maiestatis Vestrae, quemadmodum omni iure debet, redderetur.

Haec cum a me longiore sermone cum accurata diligentia audivisset, respondit se prius istius negotii sic ad unguem fundamentum non scivisse, et quod crederet maiestatem caesaream hac de re non bene fuisse informatam, quod in sequestrum huiusmodi consensisset, velletque cum maiestate caesarea et consiliariis desuper colloqui, et speraret, quod illius maiestas omne id factura esset, quo Maiestati Vestrae Serenissimae, quam pro singularissimo fratre haberet, complaceret et morem gereret. Et addidit, quod a Maiestate Vestra Serenissima nihil vult nec habere cupit, quam illius favorem et benivolentiam, et ubi Maiestati Vestrae Serenissimae inservire posset, se semper praesto futurum.

Et sic adhuc ille hic detinetur.

Summus pontifex in hoc negotio status Barensis duo oratoribus Florentinis misit brevia cum mandatis, ut ipsi fassi sunt, serio eis iniunctis, quod cum diligentia hoc apud maiestatem caesaream sollicitarent. Sed sicut ab illis edoctus sum, coram caesare istius rei nullam fecerunt mentionem asserentes se non habuisse de rebus magis arduis cum caesare colloquendi commoditatem. Unusque eorum nuper coram domino cancellario protestatus est, quod cum illo de ea re contulisset. Id cancellarius, quasi non audisset, transiit. Nos credimus, quod nostra negotia omnibus curae essent non secus atque nobis, sed interdum res se longe aliter habet. Haec tempora multum profuerunt, caute tamen illis est utendum et cetera.

Audivi eum tam bene conquerentem de hospitiis atque ego sum conquestus. Stetit etiam octo diebus antequam commodum habere potuit in villa hic vicina. Neque ordo neque respectus hac in re hic habetur. Bis cum illo fui in Tordesillas (Turris Sillae), town in central Spain, Castile and León, on the Duero river, 25 km SW of Valladolid⌊TordesillisTordesillas (Turris Sillae), town in central Spain, Castile and León, on the Duero river, 25 km SW of Valladolid⌋ et quia diversorium habere nequivimus, semper versus noctem redire cogebamur.

Est nunc quaedam displicentia inter caesarem et regem Angliae, quod ille non ingressus sit Gallias, ut forsan promisit. Anglici conqueruntur rursus, quod caesar illorum auxilio multa accepit et occupavit, de quibus non aequa datur portio. cf. Hor. Carm. II 16.27-28 ⌊Sic nihil ab omni parte beatum est.cf. Hor. Carm.

Creditur a plerisque de nostris, quod in summis hic vivatur deliciis; gaudeo plurimum me testem hic nactum, qui aliquando exponet, quales sint. Videtur mihi multum fortunis meis accessisse, quod illum Deus et Maiestas Vestra Serenissima huc miserit, quo mihi facilius credetur. Aliud est esse oratorem apud Maiestatem Vestram Serenissimam, aliud hic. Apud nos ducuntur, conducuntur, reducuntur, ab omnibus honorantur oratores, et nemo est, qui talis esse non cuperet. Hic est currendum, sollicitandum, exspectandum et ante fores standum, et interdum sine admissione redeundum, praesertim in odiosis, quae mihi fatalia sunt. Sed de his hactenus.
