Scribit Maiestas Vestra Serenissima, quod de ex<p>en(sis), quas facere oportet, non debeam turbari. Id certe difficillimum est, cum tot et tantae pecuniae exponuntur, quibus intra me saepe in admirationem ducor vereorque ne apud nostros, ubi tantae expensae non sunt in usu, suspicionem mihi pariant, quam tamen, si qua nota fuerit, fide et calculo meo in reditu liquido diluam. Viam etiam habendorum nummorum, quam mihi Maiestas Vestra Serenissima praescribit, apud The Welsers merchant and banking family from Augsburg with close ties to Emperor Charles V⌊WelzerosThe Welsers merchant and banking family from Augsburg with close ties to Emperor Charles V⌋ observabo, modo illi ad hoc mandatum habeant, de quo mihi adhuc, ut supra scripsi, nihil constat.

Laudem, quam stillo et ordini litterarum mearum Maiestas Vestra Serenissima tribuit, non merui equidem, nam tumultuario calamo ut quaeque se mihi obiter offerunt ex tempore annoto habeo nihilominus pro eo favore et propensione, qua scripta mea tam multa et extemporaria prosequitur immortales Maiestati Vestrae Serenissimae gratias, daturusque sum semper operam quemadmodum mihi mandavit hidden by binding⌈[vit]vit hidden by binding⌉, ut deinceps sum in scribendo quantum possim copiosissimus.

In fine litterarum Maiestas Vestra Serenissima dignata est scribere, quod effecerit mihi in ecclesia Cracoviensi et Varmiensi primum nominationis locum ubertimque gratiam suam erga me declaravit et per hoc breve apostolicum, cuius exemplum mihi misit, et per cessionem domini Caroli Antonii, quam ad votum Maiestatis Vestrae Serenissimae fecit, pro qua gratia et clementi cura, quam ad fortunarum mearum accessionem gerit, BCz, 242, p. 45 eas quam maximas possum gratias ago habeoque, humillimeque rogo, quemadmodum cepit hanc suam clementissimam in me propensionem, prosequatur habitura me semper ad omnia sua servitia fidelem servum et mancipium perpetuum.

Haec sunt, quae ad istas ternas litteras Maiestatis Vestrae Serenissimae, quae mihi post Fabiani discessum sunt hic redditae, ad praesens rescribenda duxi. Alia, quae spectant ress Maiestatis Vestrae Serenissimae habunde in volumine ad Maiestatem Regiam descripsi, praesertim quam ego spem de castro Barensi habeam omnia in rem Maiestatis Vestrae Serenissimae bene successura, misitque mihi has coniunctas, in qua per hoc biduum non parum sum confirmatus, significavit enim mihi illustris dominus comes de Nassaw, quod bene sperare debeam, omnia in rem Maiestatis Vestrae Serenissimae bene successura misitque mihi has coniunctas ad Serenissimam Regiam et Vestram Maiestatem ex quibus fortassis latius illius animum intelliget.

De vicerege etiam credo non tantum deinceps metuendum, quantum prius, caesar namque illi abundatissime providit. Dedit ei in primis principatum Sulmonensem ex quo de puris proventibus ultra sedecim millia ducatorum percipere potest. Item ex praeementiis et praerogativis, quas illi etiam caesar super eo principatu concessit, fertur habiturus valorem 4 millium ducatorum. Accepit praeterea a caesare comitatum Astensem a quo potest habere 12 millia ducatorum et comitatum de la Roche in Arduenna non parum valoris, praeter alia, quae illi caesar dedit in regno Neapolitano ratione officii et ex gratia, censeturque passim ab omnibus quod ad octuaginta millia ducatorum de proventibus annuis habere possit. Principatum istum cum duobus comitatibus habet iure hereditario pro se et suis desce(nden)tibus in perpetuum. Dixit tamen mihi dominus cancellarius, qui illi omnia desuper privileggia gratis remisit quod si moriretur, quemadmodum astra id brevi futurum minuantur, filiis illius alibi in Flandria levioribus provideri posse.

Intellexi a domino Sigismundo Loffredo, quod Maiestas Vestra Serenissima nescio quibus rebus suis dominum Ludovicum de Monte Alto praefecerit, unde timeo, quod ovem lupo commisit, dixit enim mihi quodam tempore dominus cancellarius ironice per antiphrasim, quod Maiestas Vestra meliores in hac curia non habeat procuratores, quam viceregem et Ludovicum de Monte Alto. Qua de re Maiestas Vestra, quae alias est prudentissima, sit cauta et omni spiritui non credat.
