ntellexi clementissimam Augustissimi Imperatoris
voluntatem erga tenuitatem meam; sed ea tempora incidisse video
ut importunum ipsi esse, injustitiae speciem habeat.
Ego sane ardentissima devotione nemini concedo, idque non
verbis tantum ostendi, sed et non exiguo sumtu facto pro facultatibus
meis. Hasi enim hic jam a mense Majo, et non mea tantum
sed et amici sustentatione aliisque causis summam expendi, multo
plus quam duplam ejus quae meae expeditioni domi destinata est.
iter enim totum paucis mensibus finire poteram, nisi consilium
habuissem huc venire atque tentare an utilem operam Caesari navare
aliqua in re possem: Ut scilicet voto meo inde ab ineunte aetatis
vigore concepto, aliquo modo satis facerem.
Sed cum, ut fieri solet diu hic essem suspensus; tandem supervenere
tempora tam difficilia, ut judicem boni viri et Caesarem vere amantis
esse, potius malle jacturam utcunque insignem rei domesticae pati, quam
gravem esse et molestum Principi magno quidem et generoso, sed
tamen et magnis curis, et incredibilibus expensis pro Republica
necessariis nunc distento
