from xx" upwards; and from xl«. of goods to xx^K to pay xvj^. of the li. and undre xl«. every persone to paye viij**. tliis to be payed in ij. yeres. I have herd no man yn my lif that can remembre that ever ther was geven to any oon of the Kings auncestours half somoche at oon graunte ; ner I thinke there was never suche a presidente sene before this tyme. I beseke almightie God it maye bee well and peasibly levied, and surely payed unto the Kings Grace with oute grudge, and specially with oute... los- ying the good wills and true herts of his subjects, whiche I rekene a ferre grettir treasure for a King then gold or silver. And the gentilmen whiche muste take payne to levie this money amongs the Kings subjects I think shalhave no litle besynes aboute the same. My lorde Cardinall hathe promysed on his feithe that the ij*. of the li of lone money shalbe payed with a good will and with thanke. But no daye is appojmtid thereof. • I thinke nowe that this matier is soo ferre passid that the parliament woU sone bee endid.
