[2.] Alia nunc non sunt. Exspectamus reverendissimum dominum cardinalem Campeium 2 ad diem Nativitatis huc venturum. Ego post festa credo me iter ingressurum. 6  The Papal Court attempted to achieve via Baron Burgio the appointment of Brodarics already in 1524, but they failed due to the resistance of Archbishop Szalkai. Brodarics was compensated by a prebend as Canon of Esztergom. Louis II., however, made a promise to the Pope that he would raise Brodarics to Bishop status as soon as possible. Compare: Theiner Augustin, Vetera monumenta Slavorum meridionalium historiam illustrantia, Romae, 1863. 585. The manuscript is damaged at some places. Louis invited Papal Legate Cardinal Campeggio to Buda in November, and Brodarics’ travel was postponed until his arrival. See the previous letter on this. 2 King 1 

Dolebo maiorem in modum, si Dominationem Vestram Reverendissimam ab Urbe contingat abesse. Minuet tamen meum dolorem Sanctae Sedis Apostolicae necessitas et obsequium, quod Vestram Reverendissimam Dominationem abesse cogit. Utinam post tot et tanta dissidia principum pacem videamus. 3 Qua nemo magis indiget, quam nos. Vestram Reverendissimam Dominationem cupio optime valere.
