In generall I fynd no more then the Coppies that came by the Bee; some Particulars by which I discouer more of their triumvirat faction and Priuatt plotts then matter of busines. In one I find a New character, which giueth mee some suspition; but I will vnderstand it before I accuse. In others I and you will find that ther was a resolution taken to conceale all the proceedures in Persia from mee; and the better to enter Creditt with you, the lettres I sent the King of Persia in february 1615 and January 1616, with diuers aduises to you, both reasons and obiections, the full declaration of our entents in pursuing this trade, all directed for deliuerie or Conveyance to William Robbynns, Connaught gott into his Power, opened, and suppressed them; and, not supposing I sent Coppies other wayes, out of myne makes his use and writes you these lettres of his propositions to the King. You may compare them Poynt to Poynt, the Phrase not altered. Reading them I knew myne owne, and, though not woorth the Challendging, yet you may see how these New Ambassadors and Agents Packd against mee. All coppies fitt for you, which I doubted others would Conceale, I send you; all which might informe, or did concerne, the factories I dispeeded the same Night, that no pretence of delay might hynder my present desiers for a little supply thither; wher if a trade may bee settled with securitie and Compassed with your fitt meanes, I shalbe gladder then all they who would haue kept mee in ignorance.
