Salutem, Reverendissime Praesul, gratiosissime domine.

Redditae sunt mihi nuper per Simonem litterae Reverendissimae Dominationis Vestrae, quae me non mediocri affecerunt animi dolore, cum videam me apud Reverendissimam Dominationem Vestram de eorum numero, cum quibus non modo suspicionibus agitur, verum etiam de atrocissimis criminibus, quasi dies dicitur. Nam proditionis et perduelionis crimen non admodum mihi distare videtur cum eo, quod mihi obicitur crimine. Ego vero pro mea defensione nihil aliud producturus sum, quam ut clamitem me innocentissime tam atroci affici calumnia. Si persvasero satis abunde, me defensum exsistimabo, sin minus sorte sua on the margin⌈sorte suasorte sua on the margin⌉ iuste conqueri poterit mea innocentia, quod eam humanitatem apud amicos invenerit, quid igitur illi ab hostibus exspectandum. Si talis est Mucho, ut ad pollicitationem etiam cuiuscumque ab aequo et honesto tam facile avertatur, profecto miser erit Mucho et qualiscumque ipsius administratio suspecta, aderat Simon quando(?) cum homine super ea calumnia expostularem, is referet abunde, quae verba ultro citroque iactata sint et cetera.

De domino burgrabio vero nihil aliud habemus, quam incolumem in Lübeck (Lubeca, Lubicensis urbs, Lubecum), city in northern Germany, on the mouth of the Trave river, capital of the Hanseatic League⌊LubecamLübeck (Lubeca, Lubicensis urbs, Lubecum), city in northern Germany, on the mouth of the Trave river, capital of the Hanseatic League⌋ pervenisse. Annuant superi, ut omnia illi feliciter et ex sententia cedant.

Reverendissimam Dominationem Vestram felicissime valere cupio precorque me apud Eandem eorum haberi numero, de quibus non tam facile sinistra suspicio excitetur.
