A. fol. 94.1 2 Brodarics, Frangepán, and Werbőczy send the form of oath on which they have agreed with Imperial Legate Johann Wese. Ego Ioannes rex Hungáriáé promitto in fide mea Christiana omnes articulos praesentibus litteris insertos et omnia ac singula eorum contenta firmiter et inviolabiliter observare sine omni dolo et fraude. Sic me Deus adiuvet et haec sancta Dei evan- gelia. 5 Serenissime Rex, Domine clementissime. Concordavimus de hac forma cum domino oratore.3 Servitores Colocensis4 Cancellarius5 io Vaciensis subscripsit 1 This autographic document was probably an attachment to a lost letter, that is why there is no date or place given. Since Brodarics signed it as Bishop of Vác, is was certainly produced after May 1537. The form of oath that they send to Szapolyai refers to keeping an agreement, which must be either the truce of Rozgony in December 1537, or the truce of Sárospatak, or the Peace of Varad signed in February 1538. 2 Autograph. 3 Archbishop of Lund Johann Wese. Imperial Legate. 4 Ferenc Frangepán, Archbishop of Kalocsa. 5 István Werbőczy, Chancellor. 516
