To the grand multitude of this Eastern Kingdom/
Right honourable, with our most humble and dutiful thanks for Lady Olivia Baker’s bountiful goodness towards us at this year’s past Wars of the Roses as Steward, do we King Darius and Queen Etheldreda have made bold to present our virtuous Olivia with such a poor and homely thing for a simple gift of adjoining her with Our Order of the Burdened Tyger/
