Reverendissime domine, domine amiceque mihi multum gratiose.

Post servitiorum meorum humillimam recommendationem.

Quid autem mihi Vestra Reverendissima Paternitas faciendum censeat, velim ut mihi quicquam certi scribat, ubi et quando comitia generalia celebrabuntur.

Nobilis Jan Szczepański Ioannes ScepanskiJan Szczepański non dubitavit magnam familiaritatem mihi cum Vestra Reverendissima Paternitate interesse. Is putabat magno sibi adiumento meam ad Vestram Reverendissimam Paternitatem intercessionem fore. Quare etiam atque etiam Vestram Reverendissimam Paternitatem oro, ut pro illa summa benevolentia, quae mihi in Tua Paternitate perspecta est, minime denegare velit Jan Szczepański Ioanni ScepanskiJan Szczepański in villa minori Swinarczu stagnum, seu lacum, quoddam aquis ad summum implere, quod sine damno Vestrae Reverendissimae Paternitatis poterit fieri. Sed praesens Vestrae Reverendissimae Paternitatis lautius referre paratus est. Erit hoc mihi tam gratum quam quod gratissimum, si in hac re Vestra Reverendissima Paternitas benignum sese Ioanni exhibuerit. Quicquid gratiae et benignitatis in hac re in Jan Szczepański Ioannem ScepanskiJan Szczepański Vestra Reverendissima Paternitas contulerit, id in me collatum existimabo. Ceterum Vestra Reverendissima Paternitas, ubi profectura fuerit ad Althausen (Starogród, Antiquum Castrum), town on the Vistula river, ca. 1.5 km S of Kulm, initial location of Kulm; given to the Kulm cathedral by Alexander Jagiellon, it was the summer residence of the Kulm bishopsStarogrothAlthausen (Starogród, Antiquum Castrum), town on the Vistula river, ca. 1.5 km S of Kulm, initial location of Kulm; given to the Kulm cathedral by Alexander Jagiellon, it was the summer residence of the Kulm bishops, oro vehementer, ut recta ad Rheden (Radzyn), town in northern Poland, Pomerania, 15 km SE of Graudenz (Grudziądz), today Radzyń ChełmińskiRadzynRheden (Radzyn), town in northern Poland, Pomerania, 15 km SE of Graudenz (Grudziądz), today Radzyń Chełmiński petat.
