Content Description

She thanks him for the gifts he has sent before his departure, a picture [of himself?], his coat of arms and a piece of coin reserved from the price of his first commission. Her acceptance of them acts as prove of the steadfastness of her regard. She signs off in a flurry of enthusiastic, and somewhat archaic, romance.
