to the highe aulter of the same Churche iijs iiijd Also to the same Churche iiijli

The amounts are 3s. 4d and £4.

s – solidus – shilling
d – denarius – penny
li – librae – pounds

The last digit in any amount, if it is i, is often written as j, to show that it’s the last digit, so that nothing more can be added after it.
