Vác, 18 August 1537

Reverendissime Domine, salutem et obsequia nostra.

[1.] Post scriptas obsignatas et iam missas alias supervenerunt litterae hae regiae1 2 ex Waradino, quas in specie duximus Vestrae Dominationi mittendas, quas velit rursus ad nos remittere. Nos hic erimus.

5 Cancellarius3 et episcopus4 non iverunt in Transsilvaniam, prout prius nobis scriptum erat. Rex videtur etiam mutasse consilia de eundo versus Themeswar. Nos erimus hic ad manum, si quid medio nostri rex noster cum Vestra Dominatione tractare voluerit. Nec intelligimus quicquam aliud de negotio, quam id, quod scribimus.

[2.] Amore Dei Vestra Dominatio scribat ad nos aliquid boni de caesare et caesari10 anis hac nocte. Ego Vaciensis vidi in somnis mirabiliter bonum somnium de rebus et successibus caesaris, qui soleo, nescio, unde id sit, quandoque vera somniare. Utinam primae Vestrae Dominationis ad nos litterae verificent somnium meum.

Negotium illius monachi,5 de cuius pecuniis aureis Vestrae Dominationi nuntiavimus, Vestrae Dominationi commendamus et pauperem Hieronimum medicum.6

15 Quae et felicissime valeat.
