INNOCENTIUS, Episcopus servus servorum Dei, illustri Regi Anglorum, &c.* 1.1 Interest Regiae Celstdiis Ecclesias, et viros Ecclesiasticos in suo iure tueri, et malignantium impetus ab eorum molestationibus potenter et regulariter Effrenaere. Cum itaque dilectus filius Magister Honorius Archidiaconus Richmondiae, usque a Deo vir literatus, & honestus existat, ut ex scientia & honestate ipsius non solum Ebora∣censi Ecclesiae honor accrescat, sed & tibi etiam utile possit obsequium pervenire. Se∣renitatem tuam rogamus, modemus et exhortamur in Domino, eo attencius, quod non minus diligenter quam fideliter negotiis a tua serenitate sibi injunctis in curia nostra cognoscimus indulsisse, quatinus eum in sua justitia manuteneas, & defendas, nec per∣mittas ipsum vel Clericos suos contra libertates Archidiaconatus Richmondiae, per alicujus inquietantiam aggravari. Vale.
