England highly entreteyned
The Tewcsdaye beyng the daye of Oc-
tober all the Englishmen except a fewe
that wer officers with the sayde quene
were discharged whiche was a great sor-
owe for them. for some had serued her
longe in the hope of preferment and some
that had honest romes left them to serue
her and now they wer out Of service,
which caused the to take thought in so
much, some dyed by way returning, and
some fell mad but Their was no remedy.
After the English lordes had done Their
commission the French kynge wylled the
to take no lenger payne Il so gaue to
theim good rewardes and they Toxic Their
leaue of the quene and returned.
Then the DOLPHIN of Fraunce called
Frauncys duke of Valleys. or Fraunceys
d Angouleme, caused solempne iustes to
be PROCLAIMED which shoulde be kept in
Parys in the moneth of Voucher next en-
suyng. and while al these thinges were
preparing. the Ladye Mary, the V. daye
of Noueber, then bevng Sondaye was
with create solempntee crowned Queen
of Fraunce in the monastorye of Saynct
Denyce, and the Lorde DOLPHIN, who was
young, but very toward. al the season
held the crowune ouer her he'd, because it
was of great waight, to her greuaunce
Nine. Mary took her time, since
more deliberate journey bride never
made to waiting bridegroom. She was
a study during this whole period, weep
ing and angry by turns. She. who had
never known moments illness in all
her days, took to her bed upon two oc-
casions from sheer antipathetic nerv-
BUSINESS, and would rest her head upon
James breast and cry out little, haf
art1culate prayers to God that she
might not kill the lnaa Who was her
husband when thee should meet
When we met the king about IL league
this side Of Abbeville, and when Mary
beheld him with the shadow of death
upon his brow. she took hope, for she
knew he would be but putty in her
hands, so manifestly weak was he,
mentally and physically. AS he came
up she whipped her horse and rode by
him at a gallop. sending me back with
word that he must not be so ardent;
that he frightened her, poor timid lit
tie thing, so afraid of-nothing in the
world. This shocked the French court
iers. and one would think would have
offended Louis but he simply grinned
from ear to ear. showing his yellow
fangs, and said whmperingly: ooh, the
game is worth the trouble Tell her
majesty | wait at Abbcville."
The old king had ridden a horse to
meet his bride in order that he might
appear more gallant before her, but a
litter was waiting to take him back to
Abbeville by a shorter route. and they
were married again in person.
Again a quotation from Hall is sub
stituted:
Mondaye the vi daye of Noueber, Their
the saYde quene was receyued into the
cytee Of Parys after the order thar follow
eth. First the garde of the cytee met her

boautie. and the kynge was feble and lay
on a couche for weakenes.
