BCz, 247, p. 87

Reverendissime domine, domine meus colende.

Quod tarde congratuler novis honorum accessionibus et incrementis Paternitatis Vestrae Reverendissimae, non est, quod argui written over ...... illegible...... illegibleii written over ... debeam, quandoquidem sera gratulatio reprehendi non solet. Sit igitur felix faustusque cum imprecatione maioris felicitatis iste episcopatus, qui pinguioris et dignioris praecursor esse possit.

Dominus Alexander de Pesentis Veronensis, contubernalis meus et mihi carissimus, Paternitatis Vestrae Reverendissimae vero obser(vantissi)mus or obser(vandissi)musobser(vantissi)musobser(vantissi)mus or obser(vandissi)mus et qui omni praeconio eius laudes ubique decantat, cupit eius intercessione obtinere apud caesaream maiestatem privilegia nobilitatis in eius personam, quam etsi ratione virtutum suarum copiosam habeat, ratione tamen quorundam statutorum regni, quae prohibent ad certas dignitates ascensum, optat, ut hoc obtinere possit. Pro cuius honesta petitione etiam ego pariter cum illo rogo Paternitatem Vestram Reverendissimam. Cui pro hoc officio et humanitate referre pro virili mea semper curabo et me eius gratiae plurimum commendo.
