I leave you a king, pious, honorable, wise and brave.

I give him my kingdom, or rather I give him to my kingdoms, to whom I can give or wish nothing better.

Truly you belong to him in consideration of his wife, the hereditary princess of Hungary and Bohemia.

Again I repeat that I do not act thus solely from love to Albert and my daughter, but from a desire in my last moments to promote the true welfare of my people.

Happy are those who are subject to Albert.
