A letter of Mustapha Chaus to the Queenes most excellent Maiestie.

SErenissima, prudentissima, & sacra Regia Maiestas, domina mihi semper clementis∣sima, meorum fidelium officiorum promptam paratissimámque commendationem. Generosus & virtuosus Gulielmus Hareborne legatus vestrae sacrae Maiestatis venit ad portam excelsissimam potentissimi & inuictissimi, & semper Augustissimi Caesa∣ris Sultan Murad Can, cui Deus omnipotens benedicat. Et quanto honore, quanta dignitate, quantáque humanitate aliorum confoederatorum legati accipiuntur, praefatus quoque legatus vester tanta reuerentia, tantáque amplitudine acceptus & collocatus est in porta excelsissima. Et posthac subditi & homines vestrae sacrae Maiestatis ad ditiones omnes Caesareas venire, & sua negocia tractare, & ad suam patriam redire sine impedimento, vt in literis excelsissimi, po∣tentissimi, & inuictissimi, & semper Augustissimi Caesaris ad vestram sacram Regiam Maiesta∣tem datis facile patet, tranquillè & pacificè possunt. Ego autem imprimis diligentem operam & fidele studium & nunc eodem confirmando nauaui, & in futurum quoque vsque in vltimum vitae spiritum in negotijs potentissimi & inuictissimi Caesaris, & vestrae sacrae Regiae Maiesta∣tis egregiam nauabo operam. Quod Deus omnipotens ad emolumentum & vtilitatem vtri∣úsque Reipublicae secunder. Amen. Sacram Regiam Maiestatem foelicissim è valere exopto. Datum Constantinopoli anno 1583, die octauo Maij.
