	Requires her at once to despatch the embassy to England of which he has several times written. Also to despatch Mercurin de Gattinaire, president of Burgundy, to Spain, for delay might be to the Emperor's detriment. Augsburg, .. April 1510.
	P.S.—The seigneur de Melun may remain there and the President alone go to Spain. On her notice that he is ready to leave, the Emperor will send instructions for him and Claude de Silly.
	French.
Le Glay, Corresp. de Max. et de Marg., I., 396.	446. MARGARET OF SAVOY to MAXIMILIAN.
	Has received his letters and rejoices at the good news of his enterprises. He writes to her to despatch an ambassador to England with the instructions heretofore sent; but there now seems no need for that embassy at present, for the instructions are void, as well by the alliance which the King of England has newly made in France, as by the absolution which the Pope has accorded to the Venetians. As to the going of the President of Burgundy into Spain, if the sieur de Melun had been willing to undertake the journey there would have been no difficulty about the President. Upon news of some excesses in Burgundy she gave the President leave to go thither, but believes he will always be at the Emperor's command. Sees no way of finding money for the despatch. Has no one suitable for the said journey except the sieur de Ve ... Will shortly send news of the state of the affair of Gueldres. Begs him to despatch the legitimation of her sister, the Bastard of Savoy, whom she wishes to marry the sieur d'Espignoy. * * *
