Dantiscus received two letters from the addressee. In his reply he refers to Duke Albrecht’s decrees/edicts/regulations concerning the export of goods from Ducal Prussia to the diocese of Ermland and other issues related to the local trade. He informs the Duke about his own ordinances on trading i.a. in hop and flax. He is concerned about the information from the Bishop of Sambia [Georg Polentz] on impediments/obstacles to trade experienced by local peasants and would also like to see the change of market day in Heiligenbeil (Święta Siekierka) and Zinten (Cynty).

The day before Achatius von Zehmen, Castellan of Gdańsk (Danzig) left Dantiscus. Dantiscus discusses Castellan’s conflict with his adversary/opponent [Stanisław Kostka] and sends the addressee a letter by/from von Zehmen, asking for it to be returned after reading it.

He thanks Albrecht for the assurances of friendship. He also mentions the Danish case/matter/issue.

In the Latin postscript, Dantiscus notes that, after a two-year hiatus in their correspondence, Cornelis de Schepper has written to him from Brussels. However, De Schepper does not address the Danish matter. Instead, he mentions the riots in Flanders and notes that the King of the Romans, Ferdinand I of Habsburg, plans to meet Emperor Charles V to discuss matters of faith. De Schepper anticipates that the King of Poland, Sigismund I Jagiellon, will be asked to send an envoy to this meeting and encourages Dantiscus to accept if he is chosen for this mission. Nevertheless, Dantiscus hesitates to return to the hardships of serving as an envoy.
