My guesses (not seeing the words in context):
setchell - (not really sure about this one) a satchel/travel bag?
dealeth - deals - as in "He dealeth with his problems."
keame - came
seame - seem or seam, as in clothing
fylthines - filthiness/dirtiness
bokes - books
kye - key
syc - such

Hello there.
I happened to come across your page on the internet whilst trying to help
my
10 year old daughter with some school work,
She is currently studying the "Tudors" and their language,and would like to
ask if you could translate a few words,
The words are:-setchell,dealeth,keame,seame,fylthines,bokes,kye and syc.
She has already attempted some of them and would like a second opinion.
Hoping you will please oblige.
Jeff + Lauren.
