To the Vice-Governor of the Mugello, Mariotto di Piero Rucellai.


13 January, 1506.

You know the object of our having lately sent our Secretary, Niccolo Machiavelli, to Borgo a San Lorenzo, and the reason of his present return to Borgo to complete his business. Should he need any assistance, you will furnish him two of your cavaliers, ordering them to report themselves to the said Machiavelli at Borgo on Thursday morning next, so as to be with him before sunrise. The said Machiavelli will be found either at the Castello of Borgo, or at the house of Antonio del Rabatta, near by. Fail not to have our orders carried into execution.
