Herevpon Augustine Steward the maiors deputie sent to the maior that was in the campe with Ket, aduertising him what message he had receiued from the marquesse. The maior sent word againe, that nothing was more greeuous vnto him, than to sée into what miserie the citie and countrie about were brought by the rage of these commotions; and declaring in what case he stood, being kept by force among the rebels, wheras otherwise he would (ac|cording to his dutie) haue come to his honor. But as for the citie, he had committed the gouernance vn|to Augustine Steward, who should be readie to sur|render it into his lordships hands: and that if Ket would giue him leaue, he would come himselfe to his honor, submitting all things wholie to his lord|ships order and disposition.
