51. Francis I. to Marillac.
Has received his letters of the 17th, and heard what he wrote to
the Admiral; and consequently thinks he should resume the question of
marriage with Norfolk, in whose absence (he shall say) he had proceeded
more coldly, lest the matter should pass by other hands. If it does not
seem expedient to apply to Norfolk, he shall apply to those who seem
most suitable (with the caution necessary there), and give them to understand
that the prosperity and adversity of the Emperor cannot alter
Francis's desire for their amity; and he may go so far as to say that if
he sees that the King of England wishes to go through with this matter,
a power shall be produced.
Having heard the Cardinal of St. Andrews, orders Marillac to confer with
the Scottish ambassadors, and, jointly, appoint with the King of England
the interview of the three Kings (de nous trois). The Cardinal writes
to the ambassadors a letter which Marillac shall deliver. Even if they
are gone, he shall still put forward the said interview.
Is informed by the bp. of Montpellier of news at Venice that an Italian
gentleman named Beltrasmo Sacha has taken a town called Marran, (fn. 2) which
belonged to the King of the Romans, and set up the French flag in it.
Has to-day called the ambassadors of the Pope, the Emperor, and Venice,
and informed them of this taking of Marran without his knowledge and
approval, and that the takers give him to understand that unless he
accords them his protection, they will make their profit of it elsewhere.
Asked the ambassadors' advice; and, after hearing them, although
informed that the King of the Romans has killed two of his (Francis's)
servants near Jarre, (fn. 3) has, in order to justify himself and save Christendom,
written to the bp. of Montpellier, his ambassador at Venice, to exhort
Beltrasmo Sacha to surrender the place, as Francis is much
displeased with what had been done, and unless he surrenders it, will
never aid or protect him. Countersigned : Baiard.

55. Paget to Henry VIII.
Sends copy of a declamation in French (said to be by a gentleman
of this Court) made to Henry and his Council in the lady Anne of Cleves'
name, in which, under shadow of a humble and obedient oration, the
author goes about to confute Henry's just proceedings in the repudiation
of the said lady. Will try to learn the author, and asks whether to complain
to the French King. The traitor, Blanche Rose, resorts sometimes
to Paris and shows himself gallantly all in white. As one of the Council,
knows that former ambassadors have required his delivery, and that, finding
the French King would not conform to the treaties, Henry has passed
the matter over. Begs instructions touching the said traitor, and also
if Norfolk, that ran away with the King's money, come in his way, whether
to cause him to be sent to England. Martin Pery, who fled from England
for clipping or coining money, dwells in Rouen. Is in doubt whether
he benefits by the pardon granted in last Parliament.
Signor Jeronimus has obtained the safe conduct for his master, the
prince of Salerne, and a certain number with him, none to be Spaniards.
Mons. de Trafes, who has been out of favour for a murder, is returned to
Court and restored to favour. He passed his retirement at his castle of
Traafes, in the Franche Conte, which, on his return, he left in charge of
a trusty friend, who has betrayed it to the Emperor's governor of the
Franche Conte, who has beaten it to the ground. The Queen of Navarre's
almoner is come from Rome with word that the Bishop made no cardinals
this feast, except him that was ambassador of Portugal. (fn. 4) Grandvela has
now quiet possession of Senes, and has put in a governor at the Emperor's
will, "which the French King saith is the very mean to deduce the State
of Senes unto the government of the duke of Camerino." Senes is almost
as great as Florence. Granvela is now gone to Florence, and goes thence
to Rome. The bishop of Rome has levied money and taken musters,
but his purpose is not yet known. He has sent into Spain, by Avignon,
his secretary Johannes de Pultiano, (fn. 5) for the Emperor's advice touching
a marriage of the duke of Savoy with his niece, Madame Victoria, who was
heretofore named to Mons. de la Guysse's son. The matter is ill-liked
here, yet the King has liberated the six Spaniards that were conveyed
out of Avignon. The bp. of Valence is kept straiter than ever, and
conveyed from Castle Galyarde to Shirburk upon the sea side. It is
thought he will be conveyed from place to place, until finally conveyed
"out of the way."
Andreas Doria is come to Genes with 11 (fn. 6) galleys, appointed to make
14 more. Barbarossa lies in Pryusa, with 150, awaiting wind to do some
enterprise. He is much feared in Sicily. The Emperor has sent 2,000
Spaniards to Italy. Describes conversation of the Emperor's ambassador
with the French King (about homage due for Satyne (fn. 7) castle in Franche
Counte, lately surrendered to him by the duke of Lorraine, who held it
of the duchy of Luxemburg), in which the King "somewhat chafed."
Treacherous capture of King Ferdinand's strong haven town of Maran,
in Friuli, by the French King's servant, Signor Germanico, and one
Captain Turchetto, on the 12th inst. The captors set up the French
King's arms and sent letters hither, by one Spagnoletto, signifying that
the town is at the French King's command. Spagnoletto arrived on
Saturday night, and on Sunday, after dinner, the King called the ambassadors
of the Emperor, Venice, and the bishop of Rome, and said he had
letters from Turchetto, offering to deliver him the town, provided he
certified his acceptance by a certain day, otherwise they would surrender
it to the Grand Signor. The King protested he was sorry that this
had happened, and desired advice whether to take it or let it be given
to the Grand Signor. The ambassadors of Venice and Rome answered
that it were better he took it. The Emperor's ambassador said he would
do well first to hang him that brought the letters, and then do his best to
hang them that stole the town. "Tout beau, Mons l'Ambassadour,"
quod the King, "I may not kill ambassadors, as your master doth, and
as for hanging of them that be in the town, I should reguardon them well
for the service they intended to do me. Yet, God knoweth it, I knew
not their intent. But, to the purpose, show me your opinion in the matter,
whether you think it better that I have it, or let the Grand Signor have
it." The ambassador asked leave first to refer to the Emperor, and was
finally given six days to consult the Regent of Flanders; but the King
has already sent his mind to them of Maran, to which all the Privy Council
are not privy. The Venetians are much afraid, for it lies very near
Venice, and they had meant to redeem it. The ambassadors of the
Emperor, Venice, Ferrara, Mantua, Genes, Rome, and all Italians here
seem ready to weep and think Italy lost, seeing the preparations the Turk
makes, and the friendship he finds here. Paris, 26 Jan. 5 (fn. 8) p.m. Signed.

P.S.—Touching the French ambassador's man, who informed Chapuys
of the powers given to his chief to conclude a marriage between the Duke
of Orleans and the Princess, which he knew how to stop, Chapuys must try
to ascertain the means he proposes to use, and keep him at the Emperor's
devotion. Hears also that there is some talk of Henry taking back Anne of
Cleves, which must, if possible, be prevented.

61. The Scottish Ambassadors.
"A note of sundry things to be showed to the ambassadors of
Scotland." (fn. 9)
First, where divers traitors are recepted in Scotland; the King, 4 Feb.
1540, wrote to the king of Scots to deliver them, according to the treaty,
and, at the same time, apprehended such as the king of Scots required
(though not according to the treaty) by Sir John Cambell, then passing
into Flanders; but the king of Scots by his own letters, dated 12 March,
answered that he would deliver no kirkmen, although the treaty makes no
difference of persons nor grants that either prince should take knowledge
of the nature of the treason committed by the other's rebels. The King
requires the ambassadors of Scotland "now here present" directly to
answer him herein, and declare whether they will maintain the allegation
touching the kirkmen.
In Wriothesley's hand :—And where the King of Scots by his said
letters, and others of 19 May 1541, reputes the traitors so demanded
to be traitors only for the cause of the bishop of Rome; although the
treaty requires each Prince to give credence to the letters of requisition
without enquiring of the offence, it is to be known that the persons
demanded use the name of the bishop of Rome "for an excuse and mean
to help themselves," and were principal captains and procurers of the
late rebellion. The law for the abolition of the usurped power of
Rome was made before the treaty, and some of the Commissioners here
to conclude the treaty were at the execution of monks and others under
that law, as in the answer made to Mr. Thomas Ballenden, at Pipwell, (fn. 10) is
more largely declared.
Names of the most notable traitors recepted in Scotland, over and
besides a number of Borderers, viz. :—"Leche of Horncastle, &c." [A
few lines blank.]
Further, by the treaty it is ordained that the bounds between the two
realms shall remain; contrary to which "the Scots have, &c." "Item, the
ploughing and sowing of our ground, &c. Item, the great perjury, &c.
Item, the raising of fire and the notable murders, &c. Then the notable
attemptates, and the coming in of their deputy warden. Then th'other
attemptates, and specially the rode upon Carnaby."

setter forward of the same. Dr. Hilliarde "a notable counsellor and

63. Chapuys to Charles V.
His letters of the 29 Dec. and 10 Jan. will have informed the
Emperor what he could gather about the King's frequently expressed wish
for a closer alliance with the Emperor. Is still of his old opinion about
this—that it is only for fear of the Emperor making an alliance with
France, to thwart which has been his continual study. He will break off
the negotiation at once on the least appearance of war, and put off both
belligerents with fine words, that he may reap the greater advantage when
both are exhausted, avoiding expense himself. Sees no chance of persuading
him to a reconciliation with the Pope. He cannot believe that
such propositions came from the Emperor, after Chapuys's interview with
the lord Privy Seal in November last.
Has not been summoned to Court since his last, though the English
ambassadors (fn. 11) have returned from Flanders, and the Privy Councillors
assured him he should be called to talk over matters with them about
trade with the Low Countries. Would like very much to know the King's
intentions, and the object of his sending this bishop (fn. 12) to the Emperor, who
leaves as soon as the secretary of Mr. de Guenebet (Knyvet) arrives from
France. The bp. will sail from this river in 10 or 12 days at the utmost.
He is the same who was ambassador in France when the Emperor passed
through that country, and was recalled for the haughty words he used
before Francis.
Neither has this French ambassador gone to Court since Chapuys was
there. Learns from his private informant that the ambassador had letters
about the return of Mr. Christopher Richer, with the success of whose
negociations in Denmark Francis had been delighted. Francis had some
days before assembled a number of captains to deliberate on preparing
for war, and, by advice of Annebaut, was collecting money for eight months'
support of an army. Another Council had been held after it, attended
by St. Pol and the Admiral. Meanwhile Francis had sent to the Grand
Turk a certain Commagio and Capt. Poulain; and Marshal Du Bie, governor
of Boulogne, was incessantly representing that the fortifications raised by
the English at La Moutière, near Ardres, should be stopped, otherwise all
the time and money that had been spent in fortifying Ardres would be
wasted if it remained between La Moutière and Montorre like a quail
between two hawks. Hearing which, Francis determined on constructing
a fortress with a harbour at Ubyssant (Wissant), half-way between Calais
and Boulogne. If this be true, it is enough to drive these English to
despair.
(fn. 13) Parliament began its session a few days ago. The Chancellor's
speech aggravated the Queen's misdeeds to the utmost, whereupon the
Lords, four days ago, found the Queen and lady Rochford guilty of high
treason. The Dowager Duchess of Norfolk and her daughter (fn. 14) are sentenced
to perpetual imprisonment, with confiscation of property, on the
same grounds as Lord William and his wife, and the rest of the accomplices.
Within two days the said resolution and award will be laid
before the Commons.
Has this moment heard that the Commons have this morning agreed
with the judgment of the Lords on the Queen and the three other ladies,
and it is to be feared that the Queen will be immediately placed in the
Tower. She is still at Syon, making good cheer, fatter and more beautiful
than ever, taking great care to be well apparelled and more imperious
and troublesome to serve than even when she was with the King, although
she believes she will be put to death, and confesses she has deserved it.
She only begs that her execution be secret. Perhaps, if the King does not
wish to marry again, he may show her some compassion; or if he found it
lawful to leave her on account of her adultery, take another—a question
which, it is said, has been already debated by learned divines, although
hitherto the King has shown no inclination to a fresh marriage, nor to serve
any lady. There seems less hope than ever of his taking back the lady of
Cleves, though on New Year's day she presented him with some pieces of
cramoisv cloth, and he gave her some glass pots and flagons.
The Scotch Ambassadors are still here. Nothing is yet known of the
object of their mission. But the King has lately sent an engineer (fn. 15) to the
Borders to inspect fortifications, and has despatched one of the gentlemen
of his Chamber (fn. 16) to be governor of Hull. This last he may have done partly
owing to what Chapuys said to him of the intelligence of the king of France
with the duke [of Holstein], as the said port is one of his own staples, where
all the Flemish vessels usually arrive.
Forgot to mention that people fear the King will again apply to Parliament
for money, which will drive his subjects to despair, because the
Chancellor in his opening speech alluded to the expense the King had been
put to in keeping up an army of 14,000 men for the new and old fortresses.
The bp. of London has sent to say he will dine with Chapuys to-morrow,
as the King wished him to see him before his departure. London, 29

68. Ireland.
A paper, headed, "For the reformation of Ireland," (fn. 18) recommending
that, as Ireland is abused by greedy and partial judges and by great
officers, who seek only to enrich themselves with the King's revenue, a
"sadd peryt juge" should be sent from England, as a mirror and instructor
to the other judges, and a discreet, valiant Deputy. The King and his
Council are reminded that the land might remain as it is and the King
enjoy his revenue, for no Irishman will make war if suffered to remain
as he is; that the subjects of the Pale would be as faithful to the Deputy
as the King's guard is to him, and the Deputy might hawk and hunt for
60 miles as peaceably as in England; and that, doubtless, he might have
at his command the earls of Desmond and Ormond, O'Brene, ONele,
ODownyll. Nele McCoyne, OKeroil, and MacWilliam, who "in effect
domine all the land." Wales is true to the Crown, because not under
one ruler, but several in each shire; and so would Ireland be under
seneschals and justices. Galloglasses and kerne would then forsake idleness,
and take to tillage, mining, and fishing. Irishmen will never be
conquered by rigorous war, they are so hardy and active. A sufficient
army would be 1,000 men, furnished for half a year, to be thenceforth
found with the revenues, increased by an Act of resumption of the Customs
of the cities of Munster, which the King's father granted them to repair
their walls, and which they now divide as profits, and yearly fight for.
"The Irishmen have pregnant, subtle wits, eloquent and marvellous
natural in comynaunce." If instructed that they were not to be banished,
but to take their lands of the King, "as ODownyl has done and ONele
is crying to do," they would become true subjects, and forsake Irish laws
and manners.
