Faxit Deus, ut rebus istic e bono publico utilitateque reipublicae Christianae cito con- 45 fectis felices revertantur, de quorum fine rogo te, velis me certiorem facere, elabora- reque interea, ut quemadmodum scribis, bonus sequatur cura et opera tua, sic: In freta dum fluvii current, dum montibus umbrae Lustrabunt, convexa polus dum sidera pascet, Semper honos nomen que tuum laudesque manebunt1 50 [6.] De Gallo8 res omnis nobis est cognita, de quo taceo potius, quam aliquid dicam. Hoc unum spero Deum tot malarum rerum et toties turbatae reipublicae Christianae auctorem, quisquis is sit, vindicaturum. Tot inita et iam in lucem prodita consilia, tot nuntii et litterae interceptae, tot irritamenta hostium Christi conveniuntne catholico principi? Credo satis eum negotii undique habiturum. 55 [7.] Cornelium Scepperam9 tuo nomine salutavi, commendat vicissim servitia sua tibi, et dixit se ad Te scripturum, cum primum otium nactus fuerit.

Iunii anno 1536. 269 István Brodarics to Ferdinand 1 Bologna, 18 July 1536 Manuscript used: HHStA, Ung. Akt. Fasc. 28. Konv. F, fol. 43-44. Published: ETE III.. 90-91. /.

He would regret if the King preferred a well-known thief to him who is so busy serving Ferdinand. Serenissime et Auguste Princeps, Domine Clementissime. Post servitutis meae hum illi mam commendationem. [1.] Doleo toties Vestram Maiestatem molestare, immo obtundere pro hoc eodem negotio.
