English as she is spoke

Hadn't seen this book for years. The internet being what it is, there was bound to be a copy somewhere:

My most dear philosopher, I am induce to pray you to wake give to the M. abbot of Espagnac the panegyrist charge of saint Lowis for the next year. If you can it you shall do a good action, which I shall be too much obliged to you.

Just canny on marvelling at the above link.
