My very good Lord.
I understand that at your last Sealing your Lordship made stay of two Graunts past from his Majesty at the Suyt of the Lord Steward. The one concerning a Prebend in Christ-Church for the Hebrew Reader, and soe to continue to publyke use: The other about the Greek Lecturer, which is for the preventing of as publyke a mischeif, the bartering for that Place within the wall's of one Colledge only, directly contrary to the Kings Foundation.
My Lord this concern's not me in the least, only my Lord Steward after he had spoken with your Lordship in the Gallery at Whyte-Hall for the passing of these (at which tyme I was present when your Lordship granted it) his Lordship left the care of it upon me, as he hath been pleased to doe divers other things concerning the University of Oxford. This Trust hath made me bold to wryte to your Lordship concerning it, for which I pray your Lordships pardon, and humbly submit to your Lordships better Judgment. I would have wayted upon your Lordship my self, but that I am in Physick, my Physitians thinking it fitt I should a little wash of, if it may be, the dreggs of my great and violent Sicknes. Soe I humbly take my leave, and shall ever rest.
Your Lordships loving poore Freind and Servant.
