Magnificus dominus Cornelius Scepperus, qui primum ad reverendissimum dominum cardinalem Maguntinum et deinde ad illustrissimum dominum Ludovicum, comitem palatinum electorem, in negotio Lutheranorum profectus fuit a caesare, quid egerit, nondum scimus, isti enim duo principes scripserant superioribus diebus caesari se scire quaedam commoda media, quibus negotium cum Lutheranis ex re caesaris pro tranquillitate orbis christiani componi possit, non tamen ea media, qualia essent, caesari descripserant. Misit igitur maiestas caesarea dominum Cornelium ad eos principes primum, ut resciret et ea media rescriberet indeque recta ad serenissimum Romanorum regem contenderet. Quae postea evenerunt et quid maiestas caesarea in animo habeat (quod secretissime mihi concreditum est), Maiestas Vestra Serenissima in scheda inclusa intelleget.

Interea nihil actum est hic aliud, quam quod omnibus modis pecuniae colliguntur. Bruxellis futurus est istarum terrarum conventus, in quo maiestas caesarea sororem suam, serenissimam Hungariae reginam, istarum regionum relinquet gubernatricem et efficiet, ut omnes ei iurent; postea id fiet, quod in scheda descripsi.

His diebus fuit hic elegans et strenuum hastiludium, in quo praefuit caesar et fractis 14 lanceis cum omnium admiratione atque acclamatione, gessit se supra modum strenue; praeferebantur hastilusoribus ingredientibus palaestram seu campum arma illorum in scuto depicta cum galea et omnia sic fuerant in ordine suspensa; erant omnes numero quinquaginta quattuor; unus dumtaxat in frangendis lanceis caesarem excessit, habuitque caesar secundam palmam, cum a puellis in symposio ad id habito distribuerentur.
