Salutem in Christo
Sir:
I was forced to returne home lame and ill from the Court at Windsore the last weeke. Your letters found me in paine, and soe receaved noe answear: For whear the subiect of mye Leters is suche as mye last to you was, and thiss is, I like not to make mye secretarye partye. I hope the worst is past, but I am a little weake still.
I praye lett noe sower passages goe deepe with you. College factions in such tymes of elections ar strange things. And if anye sower ingredients wear infused bye others, have patience, and it will purge them out. And I doubt but thiss violence shall turne to your good.
I am glad you take mye free advise soe well. It was hartelye ment. I did not account your retyrednes a fault, but I ever thought, and thinke still, it made some daringe to committ more faults against you then otherwise they would. As for your dexterousnes in the change I doubt it not. And nowe I knowe your minde, I will gett some friends of myne to leade you forth without noice.
I did ever suspect that Morlyes case was made worss then it was; but the fowlest of it I am sure was layd on me. Yett I did not thinke it fitt to press his Majestye farther then the tenure of such leters beare, as I thinke bye thiss tyme you have receaved in that point. But the manner of obiectinge it to me is more then the thing, as you will see when I shall shewe it you, if we live to meet.
For the last clause of your Leters I praye assure your selfe, that the ill carridge of some men towards me in thiss busynes shall never alter me from your selfe, or anye of them that have bine soe forward for the publique honor and service of the university. Soe with love and thankes againe remembered I leave you to the Grace of God, and shall ever rest
Your verye lovinge frend
