To his dearest lady Blanche, countess palatine of Troyes, Peter count of Auxerre [sends] greetings and love. You should know that I did everything I had promised you, and Peter of Saint-Phal and you people will testify to this.

Karissime domine sue Blanche comitisse Trecensis palatine, Petrus comes Autissiodorensis salutem, et dilectionem. Noveretis quod omni feci que vobis promiseram, et hoc idem Petrus de Sancto Fidolo et gentes vestrae testificabuntur. Mitto igitur ad vos Adam fidelem servientem meum latorem presentium, ut per eum mihi mittatis centum marchas, et ego vos inde quito.
