Ryght worchipfulle Sir, yours goode cosynes and frendes avyse yow to

his men shulle justifie; wherupon your title might be hurte. The Lord

Skales, the Justis, and other knygtes and squyeres merveyle grettly ye

come not, and thow they that have not so true and evident mater as ye

have concelle yow to be absent; yet I wolde ye dede as ye be desyrd be

The Lorde Moleyns shulde not have be aquyte of his comaundement, hadde

he not sworen on a boke, sweche evidens was ayens hym; and ther is no

jentelman wolde aquite his men for no goode, &c.
