Приказ - административно-судебные учреждения центрального и местного управления в Московском государстве

Dear Christopher, 
Thank you for your letter and for your kind thoughts about me. How I should like to make another trip with you in the autumn season or take walks with you under the moon. 
It has been getting colder lately and there are indications of winter in the air. 
Have you had any snow yet? They say that skiing has already commenced in the North. 
Lots of love,
