Tuesday. The Lord Laski came to the house, and in the morning would have presently cast all their stuff out of doors, but by entreaty he permitted them to empty all into the lower Stove. In the mean space I appeared with my lawyer or attorney Mr Tedaldo (an Italian), an ancient practitioner in the Polish and Cracovian causes: and, to conclude, I had a decree against my landlords, that I was to have (at the least) an half year's warning; whereupon John Lang gave me warning to avoid at Michaelmas, and so we came from from the Court or Town- house, called Pr<etorium in Latin. This same Tuesday afternoon my Lord Laski went to the King of Poland up into the Castle and told him of my coming, and how evilly I was used. And he said, why did he not cast them out of doors? 'So have I now,' quoth the Lord Laski; and the King granted the house to be holden ex officio. And the next day the King was desirous to speak with me.
