(Translation)
104. To her Majesty, from the Marquis of Denia. Sacred catholic Majesty,
God grant that your Majesty may enjoy for long years the health and prosperity which we your vassals desire, and of which we are in need. The Queen our lady continues as your Majesty left her Highness, and is as much satisfied with your Majesty as she ought to be. When I returned she asked me how far you had gone, how you comported yourself on horseback, and how the señor Prince (fn. 1) and the señora Infanta (fn. 2) proceeded. As often as her Highness has spoken to me since she has always inquired for your Majesty, the señor Prince and the señora Infanta. Would to God that from this love which her Highness bears you some good may follow, and that your Majesty may effect her salvation, to procure which is a duty in every condition, and much more so in the rank which her Highness occupies. May our Lord ordain it so.
The chamberlain Ryvera takes to your Majesty the things which you saw here. As our Lord has vouchsafed to your Majesty all the great things you deserve, you may accept these trifles with forbearance. In order that they be not afterwards demanded from me and the chamberlain, I beg your Majesty to be pleased to send an order commanding us to deliver them.
Our Lord reward your blessed catholic Majesty with the increase of your royal power. From Tordesillas, 23rd of February.
Your Majesty's servant and vassal kisses your royal hands.
The Marquis. [Signature.]
[Addressed :] To her sacred, imperial ... the [Em]press and Queen, our lady, &c.
