Perhaps his material had been intercepted, but «there is nothing that would disturb me more at this moment than to know that these manuscripts had reached you and that you were holding them back... For goodness sake, curb that
moderation and prudence of which I suspect you,... I came to Wittenberg and amid all the delight of being with my friends

Everything else that I hear and see pleases me very much... Commend me to the most illustrious Sovereign from whom I want to keep my arrival
in Wittenberg and my departure a secret... Farewell.
