My lord and cousin in my most herty wise I commend me unto yow .
(THOWARD-E1-P1,114,H.5)

And so it is that your servaunt this bearer hath right well and
diligently solicited your causes in these partes ,
(THOWARD-E1-P1,114,H.6)

howbeyt there hath been noe small delayes of hearing aswell of your
causes as of all others by reason of the ambassadors and other great
matters concerninge outward partes . (THOWARD-E1-P1,114,H.7)

And in that I may doe for the furtherance of your said causes at any
tyme , I shall be glad to doe noe less for you there in then I would
doe for myne owne . (THOWARD-E1-P1,114,H.8)

And allwayes as nigh as ye cann you shall have myne advyce to leave
pursuytes and busynes , and especially in these parts
(THOWARD-E1-P1,114,H.9)

for they be chargeable and very costly besides longe delayes .
(THOWARD-E1-P1,114,H.10)

And over this my lord , as touchinge your late servaunt Tempeste , noe
doubte there is , but he hath done you right good service about your
busynes in these partes ; for the which it is thought here , that ye
ought better to accept and take the same then hitherto ye have done ,
and to looke unto him therefore as it becometh a man of your honour to
doe , and to doe for him what yee may reasonably in recompence of the
same ; (THOWARD-E1-P1,114,H.11)

for I knowe right well he hath well deserved largely to have your
favour . (THOWARD-E1-P1,114,H.12)

And of such news as be occurrance in these partes , I have declared my
mynde unto your said servaunt (THOWARD-E1-P1,114,H.13)

and partly he hath seene and heard himselfe to whome aswell therein as
in all other your causes I pray you give credence .
(THOWARD-E1-P1,114,H.14)

And thus the Holye Trinitye have you in his safeguard .
(THOWARD-E1-P1,114,H.15)
