You
people of Vitebsk want to put me to death. You make ambushes for me
everywhere, in the streets, on the bridges, on the highways, and in
the marketplace. I am here among you as a shepherd, and you ought to
know that I would be happy to give my life for you. I am ready to die
for the holy union, for the supremacy of Saint Peter, and of his
successor the Supreme Pontiff.
