Reverendissime in Christo Pater et Domine, domine colendissime et plurimum observande.

Obsequiorum meorum commendationem.

Utinam et salutem integram non precari, sed nosse detur. Nam plurimum me perturbavit ista adversa Reverendissimae Dominationis Vestrae valetudo, quam non aliunde reor accidisse, nisi ex immodico maerore, quem accepit ex decessu Jan Chojeński (*1486 – †1538), 1523 royal secretary, 1526-1537 Grand Secretary; 1531-1535 Bishop of Przemyśl, 1535-1537 Bishop of Płock, 1537-1538 Bishop of Cracow, 1537-1538 Grand Chancellor of the Crown (WYCZAŃSKI 1990, p. 248-249; PSB 3, p. 396-399)⌊episcopi CracoviensisJan Chojeński (*1486 – †1538), 1523 royal secretary, 1526-1537 Grand Secretary; 1531-1535 Bishop of Przemyśl, 1535-1537 Bishop of Płock, 1537-1538 Bishop of Cracow, 1537-1538 Grand Chancellor of the Crown (WYCZAŃSKI 1990, p. 248-249; PSB 3, p. 396-399)⌋.

Ego vero antequam manum Reverendissimae Dominationis Vestrae officio fungentem videro, non possum sine afflictione esse. Id ut quamprimum fiat, Deum precor et magno desiderio exspecto.

Quod ad meam profectionem in conventum pertinet, si aliter fieri non poterit, utcumque me parabo et voluntati Reverendissimae Dominationis Vestrae obsequar, quae fortasse postea re per valetudinem melius expensa inveniet causas, cur non temere hanc provinciam fugiam. Non vero scripsi vocationem regiam in conventum mihi expectandam esse, sed causatus sum mihi non licere, ut me superinscribed⌈meme superinscribed⌉ consiliis regiis immisceam, prius quam ipsa me Sigismund I Jagiellon (Zygmunt I) (*1467 – †1548), King of Poland and Grand Duke of Lithuania (1506-1548); Duke of Głogów (Glogau) (1499-1506), Duke of Opava (1501-1506), Governor of Silesia (1504-1506); son of King Kazimierz IV Jagiellon and Elisabeth of Austria⌊regia maiestasSigismund I Jagiellon (Zygmunt I) (*1467 – †1548), King of Poland and Grand Duke of Lithuania (1506-1548); Duke of Głogów (Glogau) (1499-1506), Duke of Opava (1501-1506), Governor of Silesia (1504-1506); son of King Kazimierz IV Jagiellon and Elisabeth of Austria⌋ per litteras suas in consiliarium asciscat, quod futurum intelligebam his litteris, quas cum bullis Romanis affuturas Reverendissima Dominatio Vestra dixit. Quod certe puto ipsam etiam Reverendissimam Dominationem Vestram sentire nec video num secus me facere deceat. Iam ne pluribus verbis Reverendissimam Dominationem Vestram aegram gravem, res postulat. Mihi litterae illius plus quam res ulla iam inde desiderabuntur.

Dominus Deus reddito pristino vigore et salute corporis nos quoque consolari dignetur. Ad quod omnibus votis feror.
