SIR,
ALthough I intend to write again speedily, and at a little more ease unto you by Iames, and then to send you and Sir Gervase Clifton the Copy of a Letter, vvhich Giovanni tells me you both desire: yet lest you should send over your Frank (vvho hath from you all his sails and fraught) vvithout part of his balast from me, I have hastened the in∣closed Letters unto your hand, vvith the Copy of mine to the Queen of Bohemia: the other are ad hanc formam. I could vvish that he vvould begin vvith Iack Dinely, and slide first unseen to Leyden; vvho vvill bring him thence to the Queen, and acquaint him with all due respects.

I have written to the Countess of Levistain to cherish him also: a great and assiduous Lady with the Queen, and by Title, my noble Secretary. This is all that I need say at the present. Doctor Sharpe and I do threaten you the next Christmass. In the mean while
From the Colledge this Tuesday. 1629.
Your humble Servant, H. WOTTON.
Optimo virorum; and to his most worthy Lady. S.
