Letter #1790

Ioannes [DANTISCUS] to Gonzalo PÉREZ
Löbau (Lubawa), 1537-11-16

English register: Dantiscus is replying to Pérez’s letter containing a recommendation of Diego Gracián (de Alderete), whom he already knew, as his future son-in-law. Dantiscus states that since the marriage has been agreed upon, there is nothing else for him to do but consent to it. He promises that at the proper time and in the proper circumstances he will not grudge his daughter’s husband his favor.

Accuratam tuam commendationem pro erudito domino Iacobo Graciano legimus libenter, et ad eas laudes, quas ei tribuis, cum a nobis prius cognitus sit et amatus, non gravate accedimus, matrimoniumque contractum, quod iam superinscribediamiam superinscribed infectum esse nequit, licet insciis nobis successerit, admittimus, favoremque nostrum illi, cum tempus et ratio postulaverit, praestabimus, quemadmodum ex ipso nostro Graciano, cui uberius scripsimus, accipies. Bene vale.
