Quamquam non dubito Reverendissimam Dominationem Vestram consilium meum, quod ipsa in causa articulorum poposcit, ex litteris meis binis proxime, nisi fallit memoria, superioribus, non obscure intellexisse.

Quae ex his ipsis atque superioribus, ut est et ingenii felicitas, rerumque gerendarum longo usu comparata dexteritas, facile assequatur, quid consilii in hac re capiundum sit et quo pacto se gerere debebit erga nuntios Kulm Chapter ⌊capituliKulm Chapter ⌋ mei in eorundem articulorum causa venturos ad Reverendissimam Dominationem Vestram.
