Honorabilis Domine, fidelis in Christo dilecte. Salutem in Domino.

Pridie accepimus cum litteris vestris omnia ea, quae in eis descripseratis fuitque nobis diligentia vestra nostrae voluntati respondens grata admodum. Pro solutione panni duorum staminum misissemus vobis XXVIII marcas, verum aurigae istiusmodi pecuniam credendam, ut nunc sunt homines et tempora, satis tutum esse non putavimus: multum potest occasio, quae etiam ex bonis interdum facit malos on the margin⌈multum potest occasio, quae etiam ex bonis interdum facit malosmultum potest occasio, quae etiam ex bonis interdum facit malos on the margin⌉.
