Reverendissime in Christo Pater et Domine, domine gratiose et honorande.

Commendatis servitiis meis in Paternitatis Vestrae Reverendissimae gratiam.

Ex litteris postremo ad me datis accepi, quod Paternitas Vestra Reverendissima pro illa vetere in me gratia, qua me semper complecti dignatur, capitaneatum Sluchoviensem mihi prae ceteris faverit, utque illo potirer litteris ad nonnullos dominos datis studiose efficere curaverit.

Quod illius in me studium non possum non gratissimo suscipere animo nec illam dubito omnia mihi ex animo favere, quae ulli homini a fortuna redire possunt. Quare, si quid etiam ulla in re umquam Paternitati Vestrae Reverendissimae possim gratificari studiisque meis in gratiam illius efficere, libenter me illi praestabo promptum et amicabilem. Licet autem nobis haec res parum feliciter cesserit, boni nos consulere oportet.

Novarum rerum ad praesens Paternitati Vestrae Reverendissimae ideo nihil scribo, quod illius servitor posterius Cracow (Kraków, Cracovia), city in southern Poland, Małopolska, on the Vistula river, from 1038 capital of the Kingdom of Poland⌊CracoviaCracow (Kraków, Cracovia), city in southern Poland, Małopolska, on the Vistula river, from 1038 capital of the Kingdom of Poland⌋ solverit, unde eum novitates, si quae hoc tempore habentur, ab illius amicis reliquis credibile est ferre.

Commendo me in Paternitatis Illius Reverendissimae gratiam. Quam diu faustam vivere cupio.
