Thomas. I doubt not at all, but that this Monk hath the 1spirit for to compose and make a table and Map of these low countries, better then the painters have painted them out in the temples, or the Printers in the Shepherds Calendars. And therefore I desire very much to speak with him. For I have taken in hand a journey in the which he may help me. For I hope that either he will show me some good way, or else satisfy me in such sort that peradventure I shall save the journey and charges.
