Sampson a Warein iuvenis mihi videtur satis industri paper damaged⌈[ustri]ustri paper damaged⌉s et navus, neque ineptus, cui post meum discessum negotia no paper damaged⌈[no]no paper damaged⌉stra committerentur. Disquisivi illi propterea diligenter in copistria locum, verum, quia rerum non vulgaris caritas modo Romae, quae iam aliquot annis perdurat, et litium atque negotiorum non tanta est copia, quemadmodum ante esse consueverat, nullum hactenus locum huiusmodi, qui eius condicioni conveniret, invenire potui. Inveniam tamen tandem, est hoc enim maxime necessarium, quo tantisper, dum ego Romae perstitero, praxi ille aliquatenus imbutus magis ad negotia curanda reddatur idoneus. De quo ipse privatis suis litteris fusius Reverendissimae Amplitudini Tuae scribit. Quae si effecerit, ut XL ducati ei a capitulo quotannis stipendii vel subsidii nomine mittantur, sustentabit ille quidem se quamdiu in copistria scriptitaverit, non incommode. At ubi me absente alia negotia curare et copistriam propter illa necessario relinquere coeperit, opus habebit viginti aliis, quos Reverendissima Amplitudo Tua illi promittit, et pluribus, quos ego facile de meo supplevero apud ecclesiam residens reditusque integros percipiens.
