I'm actually keen to see his Lordship post one of
his early DYO AARs. I can imagine it sounding something like this...
To the Right noble, and Valorous, His Countedness Tommas I, King of Nowhere, Lord of everything east of Kaunas and west of the Vilnius, and Czar of borderlands.
Sir knowing how doubtfully all AARs may be construed, and this missive of mine, which I have entitled The Guards are Back in Towne, being a continued AAR, or dark conceit, I have thought good as well for avoiding of jealous opinions and miscontructions, as also for your better light in reading thereof, (being so by you commanded) to discover unto you the general intention and meaning...
...
So humbly craving the continuance of your honourable favour towards me, and th'eternal establishment of your happiness, I humbly take leave.
The twentythird of January, in the year of our Lord 1589.
Yours most humbly affectionate,
Sir Thomas Repetti.
