Letter
of Feb. 8, 1574, i. 229.
[1358] See the list of members in the protocol of the proceedings first
published in the Bulletin de la Societe de l'hist. du prot. francais, x.
(1862) 351-353.
[1359] In this, as in other particulars, the political assembly of Milhau
merely re-enacted the provisions of the assembly of Realmont. For the
dates of the early political assemblies of the Huguenots, which must of
course be carefully distinguished from their synods or ecclesiastical
assemblies, see the list in the Bulletin, etc., xxii. (1873) 508.
[1360] Text of the document embodying the resolutions of the political
assembly of Milhau, in Haag, La France protestante (vol. x.), Pieces
justificatives, 121-126. The correct date seems to be Dec. 17th, instead
of 16th; Bulletin, as above, x. 351. Cf. also Leonce Anquez, Histoire des
assemblees politiques des reformes de France (1573-1622), Paris, 1859,
7-11.
[1361] Lettres d'Auger Gislen, seigneur de Busbec, amb. de l'emp. Rodolphe
II. aupres de Henri III. Cimber et Danjou, Archives curieuses, x. 115.
[1362] "Dictitabat se Religionem reformatam minime probare; ensis tantum
sui mucronem esse Religiosum: id est, se non Religionis doctrinam, sed
Religiosorum causam sequi. Hujusmodi exemplis magnae offensiones adversus
Religiosos conflabantur." Jean de Serres, iv., fol. 118. The reader needs
perhaps to be reminded that _Religiosi_ here stands as the equivalent for
the French designation of the Huguenots as "ceux de la Religion."
[1363] Agrippa d'Aubigne, ii. 113, 114 (liv. ii., c. 4); Jean de Serres,
iv., fol. 117. Of "La Grande Chartreuse," which lies ten miles north of
Grenoble, see a good account in R. Toepffer, Voyages en Zigzag, seconde
serie.

religion et la societe protestante dans les Hautes-Alpes (1560-1789),

[1367] "Fere omnes qui non fuerunt participes caedis Amiralii et aliorum,
dicunt, Huguenotos merito corripere arma ad tutandam suam salutem, cum
nihil observetur eorum quae hactenus fuerunt ipsis promissa." Languet,
letter of April 14, 1574, Epistolae secretae, i. 239.
[1368] "Et parmy leurs discours se representoient a chacun coup la journee
de St. Barthelemy."
