Chich. Well, goodman Woodman, I have sent for you of love & good will that I bare to you, to talk with you: and I would have you to tell me your mind in few words. For in deed the last time that I talked with you, our talk was so long, that I fell into a great drieth thereby, & have been the worse in my body ever since. Wherefore I pray you show me your mind briefly, in those particular matters that I shall demand of you, according to your promise that you made when you were with me the last time. How say you, will you?
