Reading edition
Sidney to the Privy Council, March 17 and May 15, 1577; to the Queen, May 20, 1577, in Sidney Papers; where he says, ‘Cess is a quantity of victual and a prisage set upon the same necessary for soldiers, ... and so much for your Deputy’s house, so far under the value, as it goeth between party and party, as the soldier may live of his wages, and your Highness’s officer of his entertainment, and this to be taxed by your Highness’s Deputy and Council, calling to them the nobility adjoining.’
