"...From Thence I Went To The Landgrave Of Hessen..."

"...From Thence I Went To The Landgrave Of Hessen..."

(album: Songs From The Labyrinth - 2006)

[From a letter to Sir Robert Cecil:]

...from thence I went to the Landgrave of Hessen, who gave me the greatest welcome that might be for one of my quality, who sent a ring into England to my wife valued at 20 pounds sterling, and gave me a great standing cup with a cover gilt, full of dollars with great many offers for my service
