"...And Accordinge As I Desired Ther Cam A Letter..."

(album: Songs From The Labyrinth - 2006)

[From a letter to Sir Robert Cecil:]

...and accordinge as I desired ther cam a letter to me out of Germany from the Duke of Brunswicke, wherupon I spake to your honor and to my Lord of Essex, who willingly gav me both your hands (for which I wold be glad if ther were any service in me that yor honors coulde comande). When I cam to the Duke he used me kindly, and gave me a ritch chaine of golde...with velvet and saten and gold lace to make me aparell, with promyse that if I wolde serv him he wolde gev me as mutch as any prince in the worlde...
