50 Commendet me Vestra Dominatio domino Ioanni Zalay,16 domino Ioanni Coczian- nero.17 Apud dominum Petrum Periny feci officium, quod iussistis, qui liberabitur omnino, et agit vobis maximas gratias.18

[6.] De Francisco Kápolnái vobis gratias ago, et rogo, ut persistatis in ista voluntate. Ipse quotidie accumulat aliquid ad priora et dicas exigendo et meos de Zeplak19 55 vexando. Accepit nunc quoque super eos ultra alia onera et gravamina, X vasa vini. De Cherdy20 possessione non loquor, quae et ipsa habet suos ab eo cruciatos et tormentas. Nescio quorsum ista adhuc evadent.

He is pleased that peace between Ferdinand and Szapolyai is near; he hopes it will last and bring some tranquillity to the country that has suffered so much. He trusts that Brodarics, too. will provide good news.

Non possum non laetari audita nuper fama concordiae inter regem nostrum Ferdi16 János Szalay, Comes of Pozsony.

19 Széplak, Tolna county. Széplak was located in the territory of the Pécs diocese but was an estate of the Provostship of Budafelhéviz (see: Supka Géza, A budafelhévizi Szentháromság-templom, Archaeologiai Értesítő, 1907, 103-104.). So Brodarics was doubly affected by its ravaging as Bishop of Pécs and as beneficiary of the Provostship of Budafelhéviz.

20 Cserdi, a settlement in Baranya county, west of Pécs. An estate of the Chapter of Pécs. See Csánki Dezső, Magyarország történelmi földrajza a Hunyadiak korában II., Budapest, 1894, 477.

1 There is no place given in the letter, blit all the letters of Oláh from February 1533 are dated in Bnissels.
