Reverendissime in Christo Pater et Domine, mi domine et frater plurimum observande.

Solita commendatione praemissa.

Iam tandem supervenit serenissimae maiestatis reginalis mandatum thesaurario Barensi, ut sescentos ducatos in auro The Welsers merchant and banking family from Augsburg with close ties to Emperor Charles V⌊VelserorumThe Welsers merchant and banking family from Augsburg with close ties to Emperor Charles V⌋ factori Johann Viol factor of Welsers in Bari⌊Iohanni ViolaJohann Viol factor of Welsers in Bari⌋ nomine persolvat. Ego itidem mandavi illi, ut eandem summam absque ulteriori mora numeret. Annuit et obtemperare paratum se obtulit. Intra paucos dies pecunia persolvetur et tam longae comoediae extrema manus imponetur. Nec desinam quoad negotium suum sortiatur effectum, pro quo Vestra Reverendissima Dominatio in utramque iam dormiat aurem.

Nova hic nulla occurrunt scriptu digna. Negotia status Barensis cedunt, ut minus incommode possunt, quoniam, ut volumus, non possunt. Rerum omnium maxima fit iactura absente prorege, ad quem in necessitatibus confugiendum esset. Speratur tamen, ut auditur, quod brevi sacra caesarea et catholica maiestas in regnum proregem mittat, qui cuncta iuste et severiter tractet, quod Deus ipse faxit. Commendo Dominationi Vestrae Reverendissimae negotium domini Sigismundus de Russis (Sigismundus de Rossi, Sigismundus Barensis), lawyer from Bari, doctor of both canon and civil laws; in 1531 he applied for the position of auditor in Calabria or Bari and Otranto district; in 1537 in Naples (POCIECHA 4, p. 232, 252)⌊Sigismundi de RussisSigismundus de Russis (Sigismundus de Rossi, Sigismundus Barensis), lawyer from Bari, doctor of both canon and civil laws; in 1531 he applied for the position of auditor in Calabria or Bari and Otranto district; in 1537 in Naples (POCIECHA 4, p. 232, 252)⌋, de quo ipse seriosius scribit. Id si successerit, et ipse et ego plurimum debere fatebimur eidem Vestrae Reverendissimae Dominationi, quae diutissime et feliciter valeat.
