Thanks Alfonso, for that's your name I guess, I understand my son hath set his mind And bend his liking to your daughter's love, And for because he is my only son, And I would gladly that he should do well, I tell you sir, I not mislike his choice, If you agree to give him your consent, He shall have living to maintain his estate, Three hundred pounds a year, I will assure To him and to his heirs, and if they do join, And knit themselves in holy wedlock band, A thousand massy ingots of pure gold, And twice as many bars of silver plate, I freely give him, and in writing strait I will confirm what I have said in words.
