He had no time to write a letter since he has arrived to Rome; on the other hand, he hasn’t received any news from Hungary. – 2. King of Poland made peace with the Grand Master of the Teutonic Order; more detail in the attached document. – 3. He hopes that Salviati’s mission for peace is on the right track. The Pope ordered Brodarics to join him for the time of the talks. – 3. Pietro Antoni Berri of Parma, envoy of Louis II to Salviati, has arrived in Rome. He asks Salviati to arrange a smaller benefice for Berri in his birthplace. Reverendissime Domine, Domine Colendissime. Servitutis commendationem.

[1.] In isto primo meo in Urbem adventu 1 fui adeo occupatus, ut nihil potuerim in hanc horam ad Vestram Reverendissimam Dominationem scribere. Etsi alioquin non erat magnopere, quod scriberem. Nihil enim ex Hungaria a toto illo tempore habemus.

[2.] Ex Polonia autem illud tantum, quod puto Vestram Reverendissimam Dominationem intellexisse serenissimum Poloniae regem 2 cum magistro Prussiae 3 perpetuam inivisse pacem illis conditionibus, 4 quas ex scheda 5 praesentibus inclusa intelliget, Brodarics left for Rome in late February 1525. The earliest he could reach Rome was in early April. Sigismund I. 3  Albrecht von Brandenburg, Grand Master of the Teutonic Order, Duke of the secularised Prussian state after conversion to the Evangelical faith. 4  Albrecht von Brandenburg framed the state of the Teutonic Knights into a Lutheran secular Grand Duchy. He gave fealty to Polish King Sigismund on 10 April 1525. 5  See Statileo’s letter on 12 April 1525. 2  1
