To Baron LaGarde

[Adam de la Bassée]

My good Baron,

It has been a time since I have been in Paris, and to return to the pleasant news of your nuptuals is indeed confirmation that God is good.

I intend to raise your name in praise as an example to all Paris as to the proper way in which to behave, with honour and dignity towards their amores.

I understand you will be distracted by that time, and will likely not able to attend but I will give that sermon anyway.  If in a moment of pause and recovery you have a moment to attend the Cathedral for the service I would be very pleased.

Congratulations and may God bless you with many strong boys!

Canon de la Bassee

[huillaume]

Monsigneur de la Basse,

be sure that, despite being quite busy this month (as you already pointed), Emelin and myself will try to find a moment to attend your mass last week this Novemenber.

Your son in Christ
Baron Lagarde
