An earnest conjuration from the King,<br />As England was his faithful tributary,<br />As love between them like the palm might flourish,<br />As peace should still her wheaten garland wear<br />And stand a comma 'tween their amities,<br />And many such-like as's of great charge,<br />That, on the view and knowing of these contents,<br />Without debatement further, more or less,<br />He should the bearers put to sudden death,<br />Not shriving time allow'd.
