And Further That It Will Please Thy Maiestie, Not To Giue Credite To False Reports, And Vntrue Suggestions Of Such As Are Enemies, And Such As Neither Would Haue Mutuall Amitie To Continue Betwixt Your Maiesties, Nor Yet Entercourse Betwixt Your Countries.

And such rebels of our nation, as Ralfe Rutter, and others which lye lurking here in thy highnes dominions,

Seeking to sowe dissentions betwixt your Maiesties by false surmises, spending away their masters goods riotously, and will not come home to giue vp their accompts, aduancing them selues to be merchants, and able to serue the highnes of all things fit for thy treasure, whereas indeed they by of no credite, nor able of themselues to do thy Maiestie any seruice at all: the Queenes highnes request is, that it would please thy Maiestie to commaund that such persons may be deliuered vnto me to be caried home, least by their remayning here, and hauing practises and friendship with such as be not thy highnesse friendes, their euil doing might be a cause hereafter to withdraw thy goodnes from sir William Garrard and his company, who haue true meaning in all their doings, and are ready to serue thy highnesse at all times, vsing many other words to the aduancement of your credits, and the disgracing of your enemies, and so I ended for that time.
