Hence, my dear brother, be kind and affectionate
with one another, and forgive one another, even as
God has forgiven you through Christ. Paul also
says: “Warn them that are unruly, comfort the
feeble-minded, support the weak, be patient toward
all men. See that none render evil for evil unto
any man; but ever follow that which is good, both
among yourselves, and to all men.”

Herewith, my dear brother, I bid you adieu,
if we should see each other no more.

Written in my bonds, to Karel Panten, my
brother, by me,

Bartholomeus Panten.
