[P. 2]
Heartiest greetings and all the best.
Most Gracious Sir, I thank you, my dear and kind Mr. Scribe, for having deigned to greet me, Your Grace, for the New Year; with what I have received from Your Grace's grace, the same I wholeheartedly and fervently desire from the Lord God, which Your Grace deigns to wish me. Regarding Your Grace's domestic affairs. I thank you for Your Grace's news; may God grant that we hear better ones. As long as civil discord continues to breed [...]. Regarding [...] His Royal Majesty, Mr. Stanisław Żółkiewski [reports] in a letter to Their Graces the Councilors that he is waiting for the prince [...]. The Lord God knows what we are waiting for and what to expect from this; what will become of us due to the delay. Let us expect better, mindful of Your Grace, for I have barely written this, being absorbed by municipal public affairs. Keep track of the matter with Mr. Andrzej Sambor, who has not yet reached an agreement. As for the road from Zasław, the agreement will [...] take it. I wish for Your Grace and all of Your Grace's family to welcome [the New Year] in good health and to embrace each of you warmly. [...] I commend myself to Your Grace's love and kindness time and again. I wish you prosperity and health. In Lviv at the town hall, January 14, 1591.
Your Grace's most kind friend.
Kind Mr. Scribe, I ask Your Grace, please ensure that this letter is certainly delivered to the dearest priest [...] my dear father Antoni Pobieszonowicz [...], for as I hear, I will be a guest in Warsaw before [...]. Also, go to Mr. Mikołaj Jazłowiecki, Starosta of Śniatyn. [...] I would prefer [...] than for this letter of mine to be lost, having to be delivered to father Mr. Antoni.
Magister Wojciech Pedianus
[P. 3, address:]
To the honorable Mr. Andrzej Mądrowicz, scribe of the noble council of Lviv councilors, a highly respected friend and neighbor.
