Sir:
I am glad of anye opportunitye to heare from you and your health is welcome to Court. Anye occasion that gave me Cause to heare from you must needs be welcome, though I Confess nothinge was att thiss tyme less expected.
The busynes you referred to the bearers relation, and bye hime I see howe much he is bound to you which I presume he will ever returne with thankes and all fayer Carridge towards you. I referr you to hime for mye answear both because thear ar some things which I would not wright: and for that he hasts his returne. Onlye I thinke the summe demaunded is to deare: And I thinke he would have asked less, and made more hast to part with it then he doth if the great accident above had not happened.
I am caled upon for hast that he maye goe part of his waye to night, and I shall not troble hime to carrye, nor you to reed more lynes, then these fewe which maye tell you that I am in good health, though I have had much adoe with a tedious Journye, and thear's worss behinde. I wish you all happines and desyer to be remembered to your good Ladye whoe I hope hath recovered good health at the Bath. In thiss bearers haste I leave you to the Grace of God and shall ever rest
your verye lovinge poore frend
