Reverendissime Domine, Domine Colendissime. Servitutis humillimam commendationem.

[1.] De pecuniis meis, supplico, Vestra Reverendissima Dominatio iubeat dari ei, cui dominus loannes Antonius baro nuntius Apostolicus commisit, vel qui eas nomine 5 ipsius petierit, ducatos in auro Hungaricales centum et decem.

6 The Papal Court attempted to achieve via Baron Burgio the appointment of Brodarics already in 1524, but they failed due to the resistance of Archbishop Szálkái. Brodarics was compensated by a prebend as Canon of Esztergom. Louis 11., however, made a promise to the Pope that he would raise Brodarics to Bishop status as soon as possible. Compare: Theiner Augustin, Vetera monumenta Stavorum meridionalium historiam illustrantia, Romae, 1863. 585.

: King Louis invited Papal Legate Cardinal Campeggio to Buda in November, and Brodarics’ travel was postponed until his arrival. See the previous letter on this.
