Reverendissime in Christo Pater et Domine, domine et maior plurimum observande.

Salutem et obsequendi promptum studium.

Tandem illuxit ille diu exspectatus dies, ut pro auro nostro plumbum acciperemus.

Nunc non vacat de reliquis instituendis scribere, nolui enim festinabundum diu retinere. Posthac erit oportunitas omnia diligentius exsequendi. Hoc tantum nolui latere Reverendissimam Dominationem Vestram esse apud me facultatem, ut possim a quocumque antistite a me eligendo adhibitis duobus in dignitate ecclesiastica constitutis munus consecrationis accipere. Absit autem, ut alium eligam, quam Reverendissimam Dominationem Vestram, in cuius erit potestate ceteros, quos voluerit, adhiberi suo tempore. Litteras postea videbit Reverendissima Dominatio Vestra.

Cui me asservantissime commendo cupiens eandem diuturnum valere.
