Reverendissime in Christo pater et domine amice singularis in Christo amantissime et honorande. Salutem cum plenitudine sanitatis, vitam longaevam.

Accepi litteras Reverendissimae Dominationis Vestrae cum praesenti ipsius puero pariter et equos duos, quos ad iter Cracoviense extrusos a me habuit. Id ... in posterum in simili ... et maiori Vestrae Reverendissimae <Dominationi> obsecundari dari cupio.

Alia hospitia mihi incognita sunt, curabo tamen notificare domino Andreae Muntczer viro consulari mihi noto et obsequenti, qui alias scriba fuit civitatis, quo curam habeat, ut et Vestra Reverendissima haberi valeat hospitium meo propinquo.

De morte, quam si oppetierit palatinus Marienburgen... dolemus et pariter quod Culmensis pro ea laborat, utcumque dies declinat ad vesperam et longa vita ad mortem, nihil novi sub sole. Et priusquam nos de successoribus pensemus vel quid statuemus, rex praevenire solet et cum illa se excusare de hoc extensius in mutuum colloquium.

Nocte proxima effluxa invasit me denuo intensus et immanis dolor calculi, qui nisi cruciatum mitigaverit, propositam in Elbing (Elbląg), city in northern Poland, Pomerania, on the Vistula Lagoon, one of the three Great Prussian Cities (beside Gdańsk (Danzig) and Thorn (Toruń)) which had representatives in the Prussian Council; member of the Hanseatic LeagueElbingamElbing (Elbląg), city in northern Poland, Pomerania, on the Vistula Lagoon, one of the three Great Prussian Cities (beside Gdańsk (Danzig) and Thorn (Toruń)) which had representatives in the Prussian Council; member of the Hanseatic League profectionem meam turbabit et non erit in arbitrio meo explere, quid rex accurate sub gratia sua mihi mandavit, liberatus autem ab illo veniam denuo, si semivivus fuero, tunc reliqua ore ad os conferemus sicut amicus cum amico solet. His me commendatum facio Vestrae Reverendissimae Dominationi, quam Deus felicibus secundis servet vigentem.
