The bishop of London's certificate containing the archbishop's mandate
Reverendissimo in Christo patri et domino Domino Henrico, Dei gratia Cantuariensi archiepiscopo, totius Angliae primati et apostolicae sedis legato, ipsiusve locum tenentibus seu commissariis in hac parte quibuscunque Richardus, permissione divina Londoniensis episcopus oboedientiam et reverentiam tanto patri debitas cum honore. Literas vestras octavo die mensis Martii ultimo praeterito [8 March 1416] recepimus tenorem qui sequitur continentes:
Henricus, permissione divina etc., venerabili fratri nostro Domino Richardo, Dei gratia Londoniensi episcopo, salutem et fraternae dilectionis continuum incrementum. Licet nostrae mentis intentio postquam Cantuariensi ecclesiae, cui donante Altissimo praesidemus, regimen assumpsimus, ad hoc summis studiis testante Deo elaborare curaverit ut tarn praelatorum quam cleri nostrae provinciae sumptibus laboribus et expensis, consideratis variis et plus solito eisdem incumbentibus oneribus provisione paterna, quantum in nobis est, ut convenit, parceremus; verum tamen causarum et negotiorum inopinate emergentium necessitas, quae ipsorum deliberationem expostulat, nos impellit ut ipsos in his praesertim quae maturo consilio et deliberatione indigent ad nostrae sollicitudinis relavamen saepius convocemus.
