I seem to see the words Anno ? Dm (Domini) 1670 in there  :-\

Archdeaconry of [   ] beinge Sick in body

Might it be Archdeaconry of Sarum  :-\

First image:

...of England &c Annoq(ue) d(omi)ni 1670...

&c = et c(etera)

I believe Annoque domini 1670 should be translated as: and in the year of our lord 1670

However I may be wrong about that.

...Archdeaconry of saru(m) gent...

The second image poses some difficulties.  I would like to see more of the text and in particular the word after (what I think is) whatsoever in the previous line.

However I'm heading to bed so won't be able to look further until tomorrow.  Someone else may figure it out before then.

Haven't made it to bed yet.

I believe the passage is:

...whatsoever unto my loveinge

wief Thomasin Lyddiard to be unto her and

her disposinge for ever...
