Admits that he haunted the lodgings of the ambassador of
Sweden after the Queen had refused the offer of his service,
being in the last extremity, offering his service to the King,
his master, but denies that he has ever spoken to him about
matters which could touch the person or estate of Her
Majesty or of the Queen of Scots. Told the ambassador that
if the Queen of England refused his master, he did not think

princesses in the world, who replied that this would be the
ruin of England, to which he said that he did not think that
the King would marry either Intends to retire himself into
Germany. Endd. Fr. Pp. 4¼. |
