, To make good my engagements of concealing nothing
from you, during this absence of my Master; I am bound to
tell you, that some ten days since, late at night, he was left for dead,
run through the body by another unknown Gallant, in the Chamber
of a famed Beauty of the Court. Whilst the danger continued, I
thought it not fit to let you know either the accident, or the occasion;
which now he is recover'd and thinking of his return to Valencia
I must no longer forbear, I hope you will have a care not to undo
me for being more faithful to you, then to the Master you
gave me,
Don
Pedro de Mendoca my Kinsman, and most particular
Friend goes to Valencia, in pursute of one who hath highly
Injur'd his family, whose righting I am so much concern'd in, as
could it have been done without too much publication of the thing,
I would have accompanied him my self, but my presence will be
needless in a place where you have power; I do therefore conjure
you, and expect from your regard and kindness to me, that you employ
it throughly in his behalf, and what service you shall do him,
put it upon my account, whom you shall always find, | | | Similar Items: | Find |
