Reverendissime Domine, domine clementissime et gratiose.

Vicaria huius ecclesiae Warmiensis per obitum quondam domini Stephani Hincsze Gdańsk (Danzig, Dantiscum), city in northern Poland, on the Bay of Gdańsk at the mouth of the Vistula, on the Baltic, the biggest and wealthiest of the three Great Prussian Cities (Gdańsk, Thorn (Toruń), and Elbing (Elbląg)) with representation in the Council of Royal Prussia; a member of the Hanseatic LeagueGdaniGdańsk (Danzig, Dantiscum), city in northern Poland, on the Bay of Gdańsk at the mouth of the Vistula, on the Baltic, the biggest and wealthiest of the three Great Prussian Cities (Gdańsk, Thorn (Toruń), and Elbing (Elbląg)) with representation in the Council of Royal Prussia; a member of the Hanseatic League proxime defuncti de collatione Reverendissimae Dominationis Vestrae vacat. Quam quidam sacerdos, qui ex Livonia (Livland, Inflanty), estate of Livonian Order, today part of Latvia and EstoniaLivoniaLivonia (Livland, Inflanty), estate of Livonian Order, today part of Latvia and Estonia, vir honestae vitae, huc nuper se c<o>ntulit, sibi conferri rogat. Vicaria haec in annuis proventibus tantum marcas viginti habet, quibus nemo, nisi alio beneficio adiuncto, hic sustentari potest. Is sacerdos, qui eam cupit, aliam vicariam hic possidet. Si Reverendissimae Dominationi Vestrae eam huic conferre placuerit, dispensatione opus foret, auctorita <te> Reverendissimae Dominationis Vestrae imparcienda, hoc autem, quempiam alium eo beneficio provideri libuerit, est in potestate Reverendissimae Dominationis Vestrae.

Praeterea venerabilis dominus Mauritius Ferber Jr (*ca. 1516 – †1546), studied in Leipzig; resided in Frauenburg since 1538; 1531 Ermland canon; chancellor of the chapter (KOPICZKO 2, p. 72; SBKW, p. 59)Mauricius FerberMauritius Ferber Jr (*ca. 1516 – †1546), studied in Leipzig; resided in Frauenburg since 1538; 1531 Ermland canon; chancellor of the chapter (KOPICZKO 2, p. 72; SBKW, p. 59), qui promptissima obsequia Reverendissimae Dominationi Vestrae offert, rogavit me, ut sui mentionem facerem, quod in proximis Quattuortemporibus ad sacros sacerdotii ordines promoveri cupiat, humiliter orans, ut tunc iis sacris ordinibus initiari per Reverendissimam Dominationem Vestram posset.
