I have no more to say save that I commend myself to thee. Salute our Dionigio from me, and tell him this letter is not from Pini,[122] and that he is to think of me at Pietra al Migliaio. If there is any fear that the wine should be finished ere I arrive with his own hand he must measure what remains in the butt, and keep two flasks against my return, for if I thought I was not to see it any more I should be in despair.--Pisa, May 30, 1468. _Vale._ Thy Luigi Pulci.[123] Luigi Pulci _at Pisa to_ Lorenzo de’ Medici If thou dost not wish it to be known or thought that I am thy friend and can have all I want from thee, cause it to be published everywhere at thy expense. As I have had no money to spend I have spent (traded on) thy reputation. Here I am pointed at wherever I go: that is Lorenzo’s great friend. Therefore three peasants from Buti will come to thee, certain Giovanni and Piero and Mariano of Buti, friends of Piero Vespucci; they have some business about which he has written and I am requested to recommend them to thee. For love of me be good to them, for it would give me much pleasure, either with a promise, or hand them over to whomever thou wilt: only help them in some way. I will then inscribe it in the book of benefits and obligations I owe thee. No more, I commend myself to thee as usual. God be with thee. _Vale et me dilige._--From Pisa, May 31, 1468. On Sunday evening the Duke and I shall be together. If I am to tell him aught from thee let me know. Thy Luigi de’ Pulci.[124] Cardinal Latino Orsini _to_ Piero de’ Medici _Magnifice vir, affinis tanquam frater carissime, salutem_,--With great joy we have signed what our Johanni Tornabuoni brought us from you. I hope, thanks be to God, that this thing will conduce to the well-being of your house and of ours, for it pleases us old people, also the youth and the maiden, and indeed all. We should be glad to see our nephew Lorenzo, or _saltem_ his brother, at the feast of the Nativity. We should give him a magnificent, a quiet, or a middling reception, according to your wishes, for we only desire to please you in this: and you may rest assured that all we have is at your disposal and pleasure. Be careful, I beg of you, to keep well and joyful, thus nought will be wanting to you or to us.--_Ex Urbe, die 26 Novembris 1468._ L. Cardinalis De Ursinus, _Manu propria, Episcopus Tusculanus_.[125] Filippo de’ Medici, _Archbishop of Pisa, at Rome, to_ Piero de’ Medici
