669. MAXIMILIAN to MARGARET OF SAVOY.
Because the archbishop of Canterbury (sic, for York), English ambassador with the Pope, practises with the Venetians and assists the Pope on that side to our prejudice, in the hope of getting the Pope to promise him a cardinalship, with which he would immediately return into England, we wish you at once to write to the King of England that you cannot think this done with his approval and ask him to order his ambassador rather to assist our ambassadors and those of the Kings of Aragon and Scotland; which ambassador of Scotland goes also to aid in treating peace between the Pope and the King of France. Write, moreover, that, about 15 Feb. next, will be held a Diet at Mantua of all the confederates in the League of Cambray in order to treat of that peace; and that we much desire the King of England to write to his ambassador to aid those of Aragon and Scotland there. Ask the King to send you his letters to his said ambassador for you to forward; and send them to us, together with his answer.
As we have weighty affairs with the King of Aragon requiring the intervention of greater personages than we have at present with him, you shall command Messire Claude de Cilly to return to you and the President of Burgundy to remain there until the arrival of the personages whom we propose to send. Continue to maintain the posts between you and the Court of France. Encloses letters to the King of England conveying the sorrowful news of the death of his Empress, to be forwarded with her's.

On New Year's Day, Wednesday, Dominical letter E., 1 Jan., about _(blank) a.m., 1510, 2 Hen. VIII., at Richmond in Sowthrey, was born Prince Henry, whose christening was deferred till Sunday 5 Jan., when from the Hall to the Friars was made, with barriers and rails, a way 24 ft. wide strewn with rushes, after being new-gravelled. All the south side of the way was "hangen" with cloth of arras, and near the Friars both sides were so hung, as was the body of the church. Godfathers were the French King Loys de Valoys and the Abp. of Canterbury, Warham. Godmother Margaret duchess of Savoy. "At the conformacion the Earl of Arrundell." My lord of Winchester was deputy for the French King and the Countess of Surrey for the Duchess. The French King gave a salt, 51 oz., and a cup 48½ oz., of fine gold; and to the Lady Mistress a chain worth 30l. and to the midwife 10l.

674. D'ARIZOLLES to ROBERTET.
Has received letters from the King and him, and also letters from the King to this King. Presented the latter, together with copies of those treaties of the Pope and what was last treated with M. de Gurce for the Emperor. Explained all to this King and his Council, who were pleased that the King wrote so familiarly of all things. They seem displeased with the Pope's intractability, and mean to write roundly to him; and they promise D'Arizolles a copy of the letter. As to the request in the King's letter for a proxy and power to require the Pope to assemble a Council, they will summon a meeting of the substantial men of this kingdom to deliberate upon the answer to be made to the King. The Archbishop of York, who is with the Pope, writes in favour of the Holy Father, blaming the King. He would like to be a cardinal, but has not been able in induce this King to write for him. What the Pope wished to do therein was not at the King of England's request. The Council much desire that a good appointment should be made between the Pope and the King and would employ therein the ambassador (fn. 2) whom they had with the Emperor, now returned hither. This is he who wrote the words which he said had been spoken by Monsieur le Maistre Rigault; and he still maintains that the words were said to others also. He is a great talker and the King and Council do not seem to pay much regard to his saying.
Writes to the King and Queen about the baptism of the Prince of England. The King was god-father and the presents such as are usual here; and the whole gave great satisfaction to the King and Queen of England and the Council. Followed the advice of Winchester and the Great Chamberlain. Is told that it would be well to present a chain of 200 cr. to the Prince's nurse, and tell her the King prays her to nurse well his godson. She is a gentlewoman of good house, her husband having 1,000l. or 1,200l. of rente, and this King and Queen would be pleased. Writes of this to the Chancellor.
Writes also to the Chancellor touching his abode here, which now seems unnecessary and costs him 6 cr. a day. This is the fifth month. Knows no man in France with an appointment of 6,000 fr. who would not grieve to have made the journeys and expenses he has made these seven or eight years. Writes of this to Général Hurault and sends the bill of expenses of the baptism. Begs Robertet to help that bearer may return quickly with the money, for those who lent it are promised repayment at the end of the month.
The Abp. of York has written how the Pope has shown him treaties made with the King by the Cardinal of Pavia, legate for the Pope; but he has not sent the said treaty. Is told that the Abp's letter could not be more for the advantage of the Pope and disadvantage of the King. He tries to get his hat by pleasing the Pope. Among other things he has written that but for him and the ambassador of Aragon the French would have entered Bologna. London, 10 Jan.
