Description:

--"Albehit my braynes be not yet so well settled that I durst salut men of your quallyty," yet as my Lieutenant told me that your Lordship desired to hear of my wants by my own hand, I herewith pray your Lordship to have that care of my company and myself as of troops who are in as great wants as soldiers or captains ever endured. My hope is in you, that you will not neglect me, "for by Jesu, my Lord, you have my hand and hart, willing to do you more honorable service then yourself have disposytion to command me." I hope to see your Lordship shortly, as I have matter of worth to speak of to you, not to be imparted to many.
