Letter from Sir Thomas More to Henry VIII, 5th March 1534.Artist: Sir Thomas More
Letter from Sir Thomas More to Henry VIII, 5th March 1534. Letter written from Chelchith (Chelsea), by Sir Thomas More to King Henry VIII, reminding him of his promise of favour made when he resigned the Chancellorship, praying him not to distrust his truth and devotion, and declaring that, in the matter of Elizabeth Barton, the Maid of Kent, he had written the truth to Cromwell; if the king deems him guilty, he is ready to forfeit life and fortune, but if the king perceives that he has only acted faithfully, he begs that he may be relieved from the bill brought into Parliament against him. From the fourth series of Facsimiles of royal, historical, literary and other autographs in the Department of Manuscripts, British Museum: Series I - V, (London, 1899).
