Quem quia absentem in venatione ob pestis saevitiam in Regiomonte nactus non sum, burgravio et cancellario me insinuavi me eo studio duci, si ubi reperiretur princeps, indicarent cum litteris non modo tuis, sed et serenissimi Daniae regis, domini mei clementissimi, et mandatis properaturum esse. Eo sane consilio, quod in intimos saltus urorum venationem ad evitandam pestem alioqui non mediocriter grassantem vitaret citius solito sese recepturum dicebatur, nempe si eam profectionem non antevenissem, maiori dispendio et mandatorum procrastinatione subsequendum erat. Itaque suorum nuntio princeps redditus certior praesentiae meae in decimum diem praesentiam suam me exspectare iussit in deversorio, interim liberaliter me habuit et proceres aulicos mihi assistere omniaque pro sua magnificentia suppeditata esse voluit. Reddidi litteras, exposui mandata, caesaris responsa principem plurimum confirmaverunt, ita armorum Christierni terror istas oras Germanici maris pervaserat. Reliqua, ut iussisti, egi diligenter. Nec minus gratum erat, quod socerum consilio armisque instructum impetus Christierni parum timere audiret et multus mihi sermo cum illo fuit per dies octo, qui erat fere de iure adeptae provinciae, de artibus, quibus et illam retineret et tueretur.

Salutem et humilem commendationem, reverendissime, gratiosissime mi domine.

Ita nullus meus est pudor omnino, ut benignitate moderate verecundeque utendum non sciam. Sed verum est homini indigenti, ut dicitur, verecundiam esse inutilem.

Salutem et obsequiorum meorum commendationem.

Iucundissimum mihi est, quod ex aliis intelligo Dignationem Vestram Reverendissimam a suo a nobis discessu perbelle valere et in Kulm diocese (Chełmno diocese)diocesimKulm diocese (Chełmno diocese) bona fortuna rediisse. Faciant superi, ut Dignatio Vestra Reverendissima id, quod vitae est reliquum, utinam sit diuturnum, animi et corporis sospitate patriae, sibi atque propinquis placide iucundiss<ime>que vivat. Id, quod ego vehementer divos obsecro et libenter pia vota nuncupo et reddo cum ista mea Anna von Höfen (Anna Reyneck, Anna Flachsbinder), sister of Ioannes Dantiscus, wife of Johann Hannau Sr and, after his death, of Johann ReyneckuxorculaAnna von Höfen (Anna Reyneck, Anna Flachsbinder), sister of Ioannes Dantiscus, wife of Johann Hannau Sr and, after his death, of Johann Reyneck, sorore vestra. Parum equidem est, quod agnosco, animo bene voluisse et optima quaeque precari, interim cum luxurians fortuna aliis dedit, quibus magis se commendent, sed generosis animis atque iis, qui aliter, ut Vestra Reverendissima Dignatio solet, dubio procul longe alia est sententia, quando non eventa, sed conatus et animi propensitas ipsis etiam rebus melius consulitur.

Salutem et promptissimorum meorum obsequiorum et famulitii commendationem.

Reverendissime in Christo Pater, praesul amplissime et mi domine, domine benignissime.

Nuntius meus, quem ad Paternitatem Vestram Reverendissimam superioribus diebus misi, rediit ad me cum litteris Paternitatis Vestrae Reverendissimae, ceterum uxori neque a Paternitate Vestra neque ab eius liberis ad ea, quae illa per eundem scripserat, responsum est nihil. Gratias ago amplissimas, quod dignata sit Paternitas Vestra Reverendissima tam humaniter re superinscribedrere superinscribedscribere ad meam illam prolixiorem elegiam incendii Lobaviani. Bonis superis magnae sunt gratiae pro servatis in difficili incendio carissimis nostris et arce integra Lobaviensi, et precor Deum, ut id, quod est reliquum paper damaged[iquum]iquum paper damaged, non tam propitius servet, modo quam et augeat atque bonis a paper damaged[a]a paper damagedccumulet et optima felicitate, grato successu rerum omnium, utifrui cum mente sana in corpore sano permittat.

Quod vero, Reverendissime Domine, de prioribus meis litteris Paternitas Vestra Reverendissima quoque meminit, quibus querebar de written over ...... illegible...... illegible querebar de querebar de written over ... cessata erga me propensione etc. et tamen superinscribed in place of crossed-out in illin illtamentamen superinscribed in place of crossed-out in ill omittitur id in eisdem litteris vestris on the marginvestrisvestris on the margin deprecatum sse written over ststssesse written over st me, quando sit dictu incredibile, quantum mihi ex animo doluerit animo offenso ex me Paternitas Vestra Reverendissima in me tunc(?) fuisse.

Ita me Deus bene amet, me mihi non esse conscium umquam vel tantillum in animum venisse, quo propensionem Paternitatis Vestrae Reverendissimae erga me aut violarem aut ingratius vel irreverentius haberem. Nam si Paternitas Vestra Reverendissima eam secum inire rationem non gravabitur, poterit id tam diuturno meo convictu exploratiss<imu>m habere nihil me aut carius aut antiquius gratia et favore vestris written over ooisis written over o duxisse dedisseque perlibenter operam, ut de Paternitate Vestra Reverendissima quam optime mererer. Cuius rei mihi testis est omnium cordium iudex Christus.

Et quamquam cupieram ubique latere eam indignationem omnes, ita volitat tum 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 LeagueGdaniGdańsk (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 per h ora hominum, ut nulla sit fabula vulgatior, cogor ego meo quodam fato rumusculos hominum tolerare.
