Ego hic exspecto adhuc litteras confirmationis Dominationis Vestrae Reverendissimae, quia, prout prius scripsi (verba sunt domini doctoris Boreck) nequaquam intromissio in episcopatum fieri debet, nisi habita prius confirmatione. Quam ubi habuero, statim volabo illuc et faciam, prout litteris suis mihi commisit Dominatio Vestra Reverendissima.
