Letter 58: P 3 fol. 26 ; R [Perels, p.

Pope Pelagius [I], to Peter, bishop of Potentia [Potenza, in Lucania]. [The opening of the letter is not preserved.] ... which you reported to us before this time, and we ordered that he should come, believing that [...] he had obtained a letter of dismissal concerning his person from his own bishop. Therefore, even now, if, as you say, he has been elected in harmony by all, and [if] the sacred canons do not oppose him, and he has received [a letter of dismissal] from [his bishop ...], see to it that he be brought swiftly to [...] to be ordained [...], if God shall so will, on Holy Saturday after the hour of baptism; for, if they do not present themselves before the aforesaid day, [the matter must be deferred] to the fasts of the fourth month [...]. [The remainder of the letter is not preserved.]
