This is a translation of the entry (in Latin) in the main account of the Exchequer (Pipe Roll) of 1599-1600, with details of what Shakespeare has owed for tax since 1597 when he was last known to have lived in St. Helen's, Bishopgate - this area was very close to Shoreditch where the Lord Chamberlain's company of actors performed.

'William Shakespeare in the parish of St. Helen's, 13s. 4d. of the first entire subsidy granted in the said thirty ninth year [of the reign of Queen Elizabeth] which is required upon the same there.'

Note: This Pipe Roll lists an old debt of tax owed (13s, 4d.) and points out that it is the business of the sheriff of Surrey and Sussex and according to a note in the margin of the document, this matter was sent to the Bishop of Winchester for his attention. In both Surrey and Sussex, the Bishop only had authority over the area of the Clink in Southwark. This is where many of the London Elizabethan theatres, including the Globe Theatre were built.
