Infitias iri nequit, nos aliquando fuisse tenebras, nunc autem oramus sedulo, ut lux simus in Domino, qui corda novit omnium et ad se redeuntes non reicit poenitentes.
Ego quidem quorundam apud nos calumnias, qui gynaecium in comitatu Dominationis Vestrae Reverendissimae reprehendebant, quantum potui pro honestate Dominationis Vestrae Reverendissimae refellebam, qua item in re socium habui Tiedemann Giese (Tidemannus Gisius) (*1480 – †1550), in 1519 ennobled by King Sigismund I; 1504-1538 Canon of Ermland (Warmia); 1516-1527, 1533-1537 Judicial Vicar and Vicar General of Ermland; 1523-1538 Custos of Ermland; 1537-1549 Bishop of Kulm (Chełmno); 1549-1550 Bishop of Ermland (BORAWSKA 1984, passim)⌊reverendissimum dominum CulmensemTiedemann Giese (Tidemannus Gisius) (*1480 – †1550), in 1519 ennobled by King Sigismund I; 1504-1538 Canon of Ermland (Warmia); 1516-1527, 1533-1537 Judicial Vicar and Vicar General of Ermland; 1523-1538 Custos of Ermland; 1537-1549 Bishop of Kulm (Chełmno); 1549-1550 Bishop of Ermland (BORAWSKA 1984, passim)⌋.

Quodsi etiam tales essemus, non traduci, sed fraternis commonitionibus ex errore nos abduci oporteret. Hoc si fieret, certo sibi Dominatio Vestra Reverendissima persuadeat, fore ut agnoscentes errorem resipiscerent, atque etiam gratiam haberent.
Ne itaque in ea de nobis opinione persistat, verum ab iis, qui nos penitius norunt, de vita moribusque nostris disquirat, rogo. Tum forte mutabit et sententiam, et benevolentiorem in nos concipiet mentem. Quod ad me attinet, si quid ex officio, ad quod iusiurandum me astrinxit, facio non satis Dominationi Vestrae Reverendissimae gratum, ne ob id, quaeso, causari velit me a nostra olim inter nos inita amicitia descivisse, quam apud me firmam esse, vel hoc praebeat indicium, quod hic, apud ecclesiam meam, si qui Włocławek diocese⌊dioecesisWłocławek diocese⌋ Dominationis Vestrae Reverendissimae sacris initiari postulaverint, me studiosum offero suffraganeum. Qua in re si ex veteri amore voluntatis suae certam significationem mihi fecerit, acceptum mihi erit hoc a Dominatione Vestra Reverendissima plurimum.
