Quis rerum nostrarum sit status, non dubito, quin ex aliorum relatum abunde intellexeris, amice et confrater carissime. Postquam optimum nostrum Pankraz von Sinzenhofen (†1548), 1538-1548 Bishop of RegensburgepiscopumPankraz von Sinzenhofen (†1548), 1538-1548 Bishop of Regensburg amisimus, doleo equidem me in haec impia incidisse tempora, cum novi enim(?) Georg von Pappenheim (†1563), 1548-1563 Bishop of RegensburgepiscopiGeorg von Pappenheim (†1563), 1548-1563 Bishop of Regensburg electione{m} nuper nostri capitulares omnes, proh dolor, unico vel altero saltem excepto, concubinarios, votifrugos, adulteros, homicidas esse videbam. Quem animi dolorem inde perceperim, verbis exprimere non possum. Tu, cum hactenus non credideris, ex adiuncta, quaeso, descriptione videas, quos et quales habeamus capitulares. Nihil autem verius est ista descriptione. Magistratus Ratisponensis testetur, cives loquantur nihil, quod a veritate abhorreat huic insertum dicent. At, quaeso per Deum immortalem, quid Paul III (Alessandro Farnese) (*1468 – †1549), 1493 elevated to cardinal; 1524 Cardinal-Bishop of Ostia; 1534-1549 PopepontifexPaul III (Alessandro Farnese) (*1468 – †1549), 1493 elevated to cardinal; 1524 Cardinal-Bishop of Ostia; 1534-1549 Pope ad haec? Quid patres Tridentini? Quid reformatio, quam iamdudum minati sunt? Si ulla Germany (Germania, Niemcy)GermaniaeGermany (Germania, Niemcy) ecclesia reformatione indigeret, nostra certe indigeret in primis.

Haec in sinum amici effundere volui, summopere rogans, ut si quid de exsecutione Universal Council of Roman Catholic Church conciliiUniversal Council of Roman Catholic Church intellexeris, scriptis mihi communices.
