Sigismundus rex Poloniae Ioanni Dantisco electo Culmensi consiliario et oratori nostro

Reverende in Christo Pater sincere nobis dilecte.

Dudum hoc a nobis expetiverat serenissimus dominus Ferdinandus Hungariae et Bohemiae rex etc., affinis noster carissimus, ut illustrissimam dominam Hedvigim, filiam nostram primogenitam, nemini desponderemus, nisi prius de conubio illius consilium a maiestate sua haberemus, cuius rei nos memores, cum non multo ante de desponsanda illa illustri domino Lodovico Bavariae duci sollicitati essemus, firmare in hoc consilium nostrum non potuimus, tametsi illam viro iam tradere et ipsius, et nostrae rationes vehementer exposcunt. Quare vobis committimus, ut serenissimo domino regi Ferdinando id, quod nobis de illustri domino duce Bavariae propositum est, exponatis et a maiestate sua petatis nomine nostro, ut nobis sententiam suam in hoc declaret, vel si maiestati suae conubium hoc non placeret, consulere dignetur, sicubi melius illustrissima filia nostra collocari possit idque, quod vobis per maiestatem suam responsum erit, nobis hoc cubiculario simul et omnia, quae istic gerantur et tractentur, perscribatis et bene valete.

Datae Cracoviae, prima die Iunii 1532, regni nostri anno XXIIII-to.
