Note 133 — Chapter III · Ibrahim the Diplomat

“Er durchaus in allen Reden K. M. nit anders dan Ferdinandum und dye Khay Mt Khunig zu Yspanie ganent.” Bericht, p. 27. Ferdinand in his letters usually addressed Ibrahim as “Magnifice et praesterne Vir,” and closed “Ita est gratitudinis nostre effectum digne quandoque sentire valeatis.” Cf. Gévay.

Ibrahim, in a letter to Ferdinand, calls himself: “Cuius ego sum Gubernator supremus regnorum omnium et Imperiorum Exercitum que sue felicissime ac potentessime Caesare Maiestatis magnus consiliatius super omnes dominos Ibraim bassa.” July 4, 1533. Gévay, ii, p. 139.
