Sapricius vir omatus ac mihi familiaris diligentiam sanctae unanimitatis tuae sine
adstipulatore meruisset; sed quia primus aditus sero commendat mcognitos, facilitatem
sibi promerendae familiaritatis tuae per me optavit aperiri. dignum est igitur, nt
cupidissimum tui obvio amore suscipias et amicitiam postulatam non in longi usus
temptamenta procrastines sed statim parili voluntate desiderio adventantis occurras. 10
