Modern Spelling Transcription

Sir. I lost my attendance at the Court yesterday by reason that the King was otherwise busied. I am now going thither again for the same purpose, where I may perhaps be put off again. Yet must I always attend and not be out of the way when the King shall call for me, so as I cannot dispose of myself at any time certain till this be past. Therefore I beseech you make my excuses accordingly and as soon as I have waited upon the King, it shall be my first care and suit to kiss his highnesses hands. In the meantime confessing myself much obliged to you for your kind regard which I will ever strive to deserve I remain your's assuredly to be commanded, Henry Nevill. The 30th of May, 1612.
