I fell sick last she hath often times bid me to com
and fetch my meate and drinke at her house and on
thursday she was desirous to haue me to ligh at her
howse and that was as I did imagine to thend that I
should offer my selfe to searue her againe On tewsday
last there was acted at the Globe a new play called
all is triewe which had beene acted not passinge 2 or 3
times before there came many people to see it in
so much that the howse was very full and as the play
was almost ended the house was fired with shooting
off a Chamber, which was stopt with towe which was blown
vp into the thetch of the house and so burnt downe to
the ground but the people escaped all without hurte
except one man who was scalded with the fier
by aduentureing in to saue a Child which otherwise
had beene burnte
Thus with the remembrance of my humble
dutie to you and to my good Aunte
at this time I humblie take my leaue
euer resting
Your dutifull Nephew
