Ceterum ubi scripsi me alias in Caribdi vel voragine officialium pro habendo pallio non mediocriter, ut illud mihi libere (iuxta decretum consistoriale) permitterent, elaborare, iam dudum 26 Octobris per eiusdem pallii impositionem ad terminum pervenisse, ita ut hoc bullasque et omnia iura ad meum officium requisita plenarie teneo, nec aliam superesse sollicitudinem, quam quod sanctissimus dominus noster me in bonis redditibus sufficienter provisum ad partes provinciae meae viciniores (ubi fructificare valeo) hinc emigrare permittat, prout saepius est pollicitus et praesertim ante 4 dies, quando dixit se iam statuisse de concilio generali, ut ad Dominicam letare in Tridento inchoetur, velleque me in expensis satis liberaliter provisum eo destinare una cum aliis specialiter deputatis ac deputandis, gratias egi nec restare in corde meo, quin ita libenter facerem iuxta omnia quaeque mandata sanctitatis superinscribed⌈sanctitatissanctitatis superinscribed⌉ eius.

In quibus quidem litteris, qualis erat facies convocati concilii, quae spes videlicet et quis timor, aperiebatur.
Nunc autem, quae postmodum acta sunt, necesse est ostendere Dominationi Vestrae. Venerunt circa finem Iulii duo episcopi de Hispania Asturicensis et Gienensis cum egregia comitiva, primus 4-r, alter 6 magistros theologiae(?), viros doctissimos, secum adduxit, in quorum numero quidam frater Alphonsus de Burgo est, qui composuerat volumen contra omnes haereticos et procedit ordine alphabeti, primum agendo de adoratione unius veri Dei, de beatitudine, cultu, divinitate etc., et quae haeretici contra haec et quid scripserunt, optime enarrat. Deinde parum post advenit archiepiscopus Panormitanus secum adducens 4 doctores theologiae, viros religiosos sancti Dominici et sancti Francisci uti alii Hispani praedicti.
Post hos 5 die Augusti superinscribed⌈AugustiAugusti superinscribed⌉ ingressi sunt Tridentum 4 episcopi Galliarum: senior et prior archiepiscopus Aquensis, Claremontensis, qui tres doctores secum adduxit, optimos theologos, reliqui duo nullum habebant. Erat ante eorum adventum magna pars doctorum una cum aliis praecedentibus episcopis, praeterea iurium doctores ab Hispania missi iussu caesaris, abbates tres: Ferrariensis, Brixiensis et sancti Georgii apud Venetos, viri excellentioris ingenii ordinis sancti Benedicti, qui sunt in tota eorum congregatione. Unus eorum, videlicet V written over s⌈sVV written over s⌉enetus, librum de libero arbitrio composuit, in quo non satis bene concordare videtur cum aliis praes antiquis, praesertim Augustino. Hi omnes ardentissimo desiderio feruntur, ut via disputationis veritatem aperiant adversariis catholicae fidei nostrae. Sed non video, quomodo illa via satisfiat eorum desiderio, cum heretici omni astutia et cavillatione fingunt et impediunt huiusmodi congressum. In primis quidem uti ferventissimi fuerunt ad disputandum, ita nunc nedum tepidi, sed cavillosi, ne umquam eo ordine AAWO, AB, D. 67, f. 22v reducantur ad apertam veritatem, quia uti tunc ita et nunc cum omni confusione a cathedra expellerentur. Alia via forsan hidden by binding⌈[an]an hidden by binding⌉ opus erit, qualem christianissimi principes olim severis legibus successoribus suis (ne sinerent maleficos vivere) demonstrarunt.
Si consiliarii cesareae maiestatis acutius respicerent codicem de hereticis et manicheis, de episcopis et clero hidden by binding⌈[lero]lero hidden by binding⌉, de Summa Trinitate etc. cum aliis infinitis iuribus, longos circuitus t superinscribed in place of crossed-out t⌈ttt superinscribed in place of crossed-out t⌉utius effugerent et lucidam ac omnimodam veritatem invenirent. Et esto, quod ad disputationem adduci possent hidden by binding⌈[nt]nt hidden by binding⌉, ratione ita eveniet, quemadmodum Chrisotomus(!) dicit: Haeretici vinci possunt, non tamen fatentur se victos. Ideo placari neque hidden by binding⌈[e]e hidden by binding⌉unt. Sed multis mendaciis et insidiis se iactant victores et hoc est in causa, quod prius memini me etiam induxisse hidden by binding⌈[isse]isse hidden by binding⌉ in scriptis meis apud Reverendissimam Dominationem Vestram etiam de mente Origenis, Tertulliani, Augustini, Hieronimi et Ambrosii etc hidden by binding⌈[c]c hidden by binding⌉.

Sequenti die et duobus aliis celebratae sunt ad laudem Dei superinscribed⌈ad laudem Deiad laudem Dei superinscribed⌉ missae tres pro honore novi heredis filii Philippi in Hispania geniti, prima de transfiguratione Domini cum sermone Latino, 2-a de Sancto Spiritu cum oratione in vulgari Italico et 3-a de Beata Virgine cum oratione linguae Hispanicae.

Primum convivium habebant (convocatis omnibus hidden by binding⌈[us]us hidden by binding⌉ episcopis et magnatibus) 3-s legati pontificis, 2-m frater cardinalis Tridentini in arce huius urbis, 3-m orator caesaris Don Dega hidden by binding⌈[a]a hidden by binding⌉, qui hodie huc superinscribed⌈huchuc superinscribed⌉ revertetur a Bressa, ubi aliquot diebus causa solacii fuerat cum cardinali Tridentino.

AAWO, AB, D. 67, f. 23r Quid autem eveniet, curabo per nobilem dominum Anthonium Fugarum Augustanensem (cui nunc celerrime scribo), ut Reverendissima Dominatio Vestra sciat.
Heri accepi litteras a carissimo nostro Gaspare, qui sanus est, scilicet Romae dicit ortam mortalitatem, in qua 21 Iulii absorptus est Stanislaus penitentiarius Polonicae nationis. Ego rescripsi, ut curam habeat boni regiminis sui meaque, si quid accideret, utatur medicina, per quam aliquid relevavi eum Romae et dedi eam in manus eius, ut longaevus sit super malam terram. Hac forsan futura septimana facient caesariani solennes exequias pro illa iuvencula matre novi heredis, quae posthumum reliquit etc. Fertur caesarem dedisse Luteranis in optione concilii continuandi tres civitates: Coloniam, Treverum vel Metium in Lothoringia etc.
Haec Reverendissimae Dominationi uti sine ordine scripta sunt, ita dignetur ea suo prudentissimo iudicio bene perpendere ac ordinare, festinans nuntius parit tumultuarium stilum et forsan fastidiosum. Volui potius aliquid celerrius quam nihil on the margin⌈quam nihilquam nihil on the margin⌉ scribere, ne frustraretur Reverendissima Dominatio Vestra in meditatione sua, dum anxia turbataque manet fluctuante religione.
Ego me hinc recipiam ad patriarcham Venetum, si licentia conceditur episcopis et praelatis abeundi, habeo enim talem causam, quae ... illegible⌈...... illegible⌉ in dispendium vitae et fortunarum mearum me cogit hic remanere in Italia, donec metiar exitum rei, quia, ubi semel descendero in Germaniam, aetas et vires superinscribed⌈et vireset vires superinscribed⌉ amplius toties peregrinandi in hunc locum non sinent. Superveniet enim mansuetudo etc.
Felicissime valeat Reverendissima Dominatio Vestra meoque nomine salutet carissimam sororem suam dominam Annam. adhuc usque primum diem Augusti filius eius nulla habebat nova de tota Polonia in Roma, attamen sperat se in causa Scultetica victoriam reportaturum etc.

Parans clausuram harum litterarum video ex fenestra maximam multitudinem rusticorum utriusque sexus cum plebanis et parvulis processionem facere litaniasque cantare pro impetratione pluviae in montibus his arduis et sterilibus.

Quemadmodum fere omnia, quae in praeteritis tribus superioribus sessionibus acta sunt in hoc generali concilio, diligenter significare curavi Reverendissimae Dominationi Vestrae, ita quoque et hesternae sessionis quartae seriem et ordinem notificare decet. Praesidebant ante summum altare 3-s Apostolicae Sedis legati de latere post finem missae de Sancto Spiritu habitae. {(} Ante quos <(>in medio scilicet trium episcoporum sedentium et totidem doctorum stantium<)>, post litanias ac hymnum Veni Creator et ante Veni Sancte Spiritus cum collectis et orationibus solitis{)}, legebantur duo decreta. Primum super determinatione peccati originis, a cuius contagione Beatissima Virgo praeservata excipiebatur iuxta duas extravagantes Sixti de reliquiis et veneratione sanctorum.
Alterum decretum multa membra in partes distincta continebat, de praebenda videlicet theologicali in locis insignibus, ubi praesertim multitudo cleri est, ut i hidden by binding⌈[ut i]ut i hidden by binding⌉nstituatur, ut Sacrae Scripturae ordinarius et idoneus lector eius sustentatione foveatur vel prima praebenda vacans omni cassata resignatione seu gratia exspectativa eidem assignetur.
Item, quod in monasteriis, scilicet Sancti Benedicti, Bernardi et similium, ubi otiosam videntur ducere vitam ingeniosi adolescentes, fiat lectio sacrarum litterarum. Hoc ipsum etiam in fratribus regularibus, ut scholasticam disciplinam propter praedicationes et confessionum examina diligenter exerceant, determinabatur. Cartusianis data est licentia eo casu linguam aperiendi, ut loquantur recte.
Item, quod episcopi praedicent per se vel alios, severiter est statutum. Sed de eorum residentia apertius determinanda (licet in praedicatione tacite sit inclusa) alio tempore et decreto solito severius aliquid statuetur, misera etenim res est et perpetuo gemitu deploranda, quod plerique episcopi forsitan ad 30 annos vel tota aetate ecclesias suas et oves non viderunt aut agnoscere curaverunt. Cum de moribus reformandis agetur, et haec quoque abominatio aperietur.
Item, de praedicatione plebanorum et aliorum curam animarum habentium.
Item, de regularibus ordinum mendicantium, quod sine ordinariorum petita et obtenta licentia nullatenus praedicent, et, si errores et scandala seminaverunt, eorum insolentiam corripiat episcopus, praesertim ubi generalis vel superior huiusmodi praedicatoris negligens fuerit in corripiendo. Circa hunc articulum (propter exemptos et similes) difficultates exortae sunt, attamen sublatae, ut nullo obstante impedimento in favorem fidei crimina non maneant impunita aut in malitia sua glorientur etc.
Item, de quaestuariis, quorum ingens et forsan insolens numerus est in Hispania, statutum est, ne ullo modo praedicent, prout alias meri laici propter quaestum aperte fecerunt. Item, quinta et sequens sessio pro die Iovis post Iacobi indicta est.
Item, severiter accusata est contumacia episcoporum absentium, qui domi sine legitimo impedimento delitescunt tamquam mercenarii. AWO, AB, D. 6, f. 94v Posthac citius, quomodo fieri poterit, articulus de iustificatione impii absolvetur locum et ordinem praeparans ad alia magis necessaria, videlicet de sanctissimo usu septem sacramentorum et aliis condependentibus rebus, ac reformatione morum, prout in prima apertione et sessione promissum exstitit.
Curabo, ut in brevi bullas seu decreta huius 4 sessionum habeat Reverendissima Dominatio Vestra, quae hac brevi relatione contentari dignetur super materia concilii nostri generalis.
De Francia et Anglia, quod pax sit, ut rumore laeto nescio quo auctore percepimus, verum verbum non habemus, immo non certum est, quamdiu duret pax inter caesaream maiestatem et Gallum, prout ego ab episcopis Franciae colligere possum. Attamen bene sperare licet, quia cardinalis Tridentinus ruere et celeritate postarum ad pontificem de caesare a Ratisbona missus ante dies octo hoc praecipue in commissis inter alia ardua negotia habere creditur, quod pontifex vigilet, ne Gallus forsitan cum Turca sese a tergo elevent, dum imperator occupatur in corripiendo Luteranos, prout iam coepit contra Coloniensem, qui adiutorio seditiosorum civium noctu eam urbem ingredi temptavit, hinc inde accer paper damaged⌈[r]r paper damaged⌉sitis foraneis copiis, sed conatus ille caesarianorum vigilanti praesidio et vi armorum extinctus est. Praeterea caesar iusserat, ut landgravius orig. lantgrabius⌈landgraviuslandgravius orig. lantgrabius⌉ (secum accepto duce Brunxvicensi) ad se celeriter veniat, ita et Iohannes dux Saxoniae, cuius oratores excusationes paper damaged⌈[s]s paper damaged⌉ forsitan frivolas allegantes sine ulla audientia dimisit. Item Nurnbergenses in solo landgravii orig. langravii⌈landgraviilandgravii orig. langravii⌉ salvo conductu et Christiana libertate confidentes per amicos ducis Brunxvicensis, dum opulentum a nundinis hincinde quaestum reportarunt, ultra centum milia amiserunt et haec initia maiorum sunt malorum, si Ezechieli credendum sit, forsitan capitulo 18 et similibus de Tyro et Sydone etc.
Intelligo praeterea ex scriptis a Ratisbona susceptis, quomodo rex Daciae, Holsatus dico, Cartusianis prope Lubec permiserit colligere ac vestire fratres iuxta regulas eorum hoc excepto, quod nullam dicant missam Latinam, donec illa declarata fuerit per generale concilium, quod idolatriam non sapiat. Si hoc verum est, signum formidinis suae aperit, quod generale concilium cornua producet et ungulas, et revera sic in exspectatione certa est multorum bonorum hominum, qui et apud Deum, et apud homines instant, ne concilium hoc ante optatum finem et ecclesie consolationem dissolvatur.
De Lubicensi praebenda Reverendissima Dominatio Vestra modum inveniat, ne ob defectum solicitationis statutorum in ea defraudemur, postea bene uti in omnibus aliis longe maioribus rebus concordabimur, et felicissime valeat Reverendissima Dominatio Vestra, quae carissimam sororem suam salutet.

Faxit divina benignitas, ut eorum adventus cum his, qui a mane ad meridiem laborarunt, Deo sit gratus et calamitosae ecclesiae utilis in profundo maerore. Si ita accederent viri (optimae vitae ac doctrinae) Hispani antistites superinscribed⌈antistitesantistites superinscribed⌉ ex Tridento (quod numquam fieri arbitror), profecto gloriosissimum finem huius sacri concilii intueremur.
Prorogata est sessio, ut alias scripsi et ob quam causam, promissumque cito resolui de ambigua die celebrandae novae sessionis beneplacito concilii reservatae, sed quintadecimam diem postea nunc computamus nec verbum quidem (propter secretam pontificis cunctationem et caesaris perplexitatem, donec pacatam viderit Germaniam), quid fieri poterit, intuemur, fiunt nihilominus quotidianae pontificum ac theologorum super materia dogmatum ac reformatione morum congregationes praesertim de abusibus circa sacramenta baptismi et confirmationis et ita de reliquis. Mensque manet synodi post hac de virginitate et coelibatu (quos Luterani admodum vilipendunt) diligentius, quomodo fieri poterit, pertractare, deinde ad alia et alia, donec optatum finem tam sanctis negotiis imponere valeamus, progredi.
Ex diaeta Augustana magnus habetur respectus, sed maior ad hoc, quod praelati Germaniae contemplatione caesaris ad Tridentum et non ultra secum haeresiarchas ducendo accedere volunt hosque vocare in communem laborem exstinguendarum haeresum, qui hic sunt congregati vel congregandi. Quid autem eveniet, apud me satis cum admiratione haereo, donec perplexitas ista patribus, ut discutiatur, fuerit intimata. Quo facto mox sciet Paternitas Vestra Reverendissima litteris meis informanda, quid hinc pro pace ecclesiae sit elicitura.
