'Tis well done.

My Friends, and Brethren (in these great Affaires)

I must acquaint you, that I haue receiu'd

New‑dated Letters from Northumberland:

Their cold intent, tenure, and substance thus.

As might hold fortance with his Qualitie,

The which hee could not leuie: whereupon

To Scotland; and concludes in heartie prayers,

That your Attempts may ouer‑liue the hazard,

And fearefull meeting of their Opposite.
