50 | <p>Katharine the Queen. <BR>Right trusty and well-beloved cousins,
|
---|
51 | we greet you well.&nbsp; Letting you wit that having received your letters
|
---|
52 | of the 23rd of this present, we have by the same had singular comfort, as
|
---|
53 | well to perceive thereby the state of health my lord the king's majesty was
|
---|
54 | in at that present, as also the good beginning of success of his grace's
|
---|
55 | affairs there; for your joyful news whereof we give unto you our right
|
---|
56 | hearty thanks.&nbsp; And forasmuch as, touching the other contents of your
|
---|
57 | said letters, we have presently written at length unto my said lord, the
|
---|
58 | king's majesty, we forbear to repeat the same unto you, not doubting but
|
---|
59 | that his highness will communicate the same unto you accordingly.&nbsp;
|
---|
60 | Given under our signet at my said lord the king's majesty's honor of Hampton
|
---|
61 | Court, the 25th day of July, the 36th year of his majesty's most noble
|
---|
