Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Life and Letters of Sir Henry Wotton, Vol. 2 of 2 My Lord, Although since my return home from Venice by that place where you are, and where you used me so nobly, I have lived in much silence towards you and all others, passing my time more in mine own private study than in the Court, which is the market of noise and novelties; yet being now put abroad again by his Majesty into some action, I am bound to give your Lordship a reckoning of myself and of my employment, both out of the general duty of such correspondence as ought to run between the servants of one good master, and likewise by mine own personal and particular obligations towards yourself. It may please your Lordship, therefore, to understand from me, that I arrived yesternight as far as Amiens, on my way towards the Court of Savoy; whither I am bearing his Majesty´s commandments, who is desirous to satisfy that Duke about the subject of the two late embassies, in the first propounding a reciprocal, in the second a single match. It is likewise his Majesty´s care not to remain in obligation for certain rarities that were sent him, and therefore he hath returned by me unto the said Duke a very rich and royal present, consisting of ten ambling horses, sumptuously caparisoned in several kinds, and a jewelled sword.
