Help deciphering some wills!

[Fraser178]

Hey,

I've got two wills that I'm unable to make out more than one word, I've hosted them online as the files are too large to upload with the post.

https://ibb.co/6bF9c1f - Robert Harper of Beoley (d. 1598)

https://ibb.co/chQBDnw - Humphrey Harper of Meriden (d. 1641)

Any help even on a part of it would be much appreciated! Please let me know if the links don't work

Thank you,

Joel

This must be the same Robert Harper 20 years earlier. He was the plaintiff in a case in Common Pleas in Hilary Term, 1578.

London. Robert Harper, of 'Boelye', yeoman, versus John Russell, of Strensham, Worcs, esq, for a debt of 40 pounds

Would this reduce the quality to make them unreadable?
