" Trustie and welbeloved we grete you well. And where the right high and 

 excellent, our good Cousin the prince of Spayne is resolved within short tyme to 

 come into this our Realm : Forasmuch as we doo much desier to have him both 

 at his landing and in all other places of his passage well and honorably used and

 your neighbours and friends as you may to give attendance upon him yf£ he doo 

 land in any of the said western portes, as sone as he shall come nere the borders 

 of that our Countie of Wiltes, and for that purpose to harken diligently where it 

 shall chaunce him to land attending upon him continually untill you shall perceive 

 other personages of honour to repaire unto him for the same effect, And during 

 the tyme of your attendaunce upon him, we pray and require you to take order, 

 that things necessarie for him and his trayne may be supplied in all places as 

 honorably as may be whereby you shall administre unto us right acceptable 

 pleasure which we will not faile to reteigne in our good remembraunce to be 

 considered towards you as occasion may serve. Yeven under our Signet at our 

 pallaco of Westminster the xiiij th day of January the first yere of our Reign. 

 " To our trustie and welbeloved Sir 



John Thynne Knight."
