I'll Leave My Wife, Marry My Daughter, and Give You Half of England

There aren't surviving copies of the letters. But thanks to reconstructions from figures like william a poitier, we have a pretty good idea of the kinds of demands and threats that were being made. You want me to leave my wife, marry your daughter and give you half of england, or else you are going to invade with knights. Sounds like you've got a hell of a plan put together there. X o, x o, xo, his royal highness, king harold the second of england.
