d not have been presented) in 1530; since it bears the signature of Wolsey, who died in the November of that year. [333] Mademoiselle de Boleyn est venue; et l'a le Roy logee en fort beau logis; et qu'il a faict bien accoustrer tout aupres du sien. Et luy est la cour faicte ordinairement tous les jours plus grosse que de long temps elle ne fut faicte a la Royne. Je crois bien qu'on veult accoutumer par les petie ce peuple a l'endurer, afin que quand ivendra a donner les grands coups, il ne les trouve si estrange. Toutefois il demeure tous jours endurcy, et croy bien qu'il feroit plus qu'il ne faict si plus il avoit de puissance; mais grand ordre se donne par tout.--Bishop of Bayonne to the Grand Master: LEGRAND, vol. iii. p. 231.

State Paper Office._ [336] Also it is a proverb of old date--"The pride of France, the treason of England, and the war of Ireland, shall never have end." _State Papers_, vol. ii. p. 11 [337] There was a secret ambassador with the Scots king from the emperour, who had long communicated with the king alone in his privy chamber. And after the ambassador's departure the king, coming out into his outer chamber, said to his chancellor and the Earl Bothwell, "My lords, how much are we bounden unto the emperour that in the matter concerning our style, which so long he hath set about for our honour, that shall be by him discussed on Easter day, and that we may lawfully write ourself Prince of England and Duke of York." To which the chancellor said, "I pray God the pope confirm the same." The Scots king answered, "Let the emperour alone."--Earl of Northumberland to Henry VIII.: _State Papers_, vol. iv. p. 599. [338] HALL, p. 783. [339] "The bishop was brought in desperation of his life."--_Rolls House MS._, second series, 532. This paper confirms Hall's account in every point. [340] HALL, p. 796. [341] BURNET, vol. iii. p. 115. [342] Warham was however fined L300 for it.--HALL, 796. A letter of Richard Tracy, son of the dead man, is in the _MS. State Paper Office_, first series, vol. iv. He says the King's Majesty had committed the investigation of the matter to Cromwell. [343] LATIMER'S _Sermons_, p. 46. [344] Cap. iii. [345] 23 Hen. VIII. cap. 1. [346] 23 Hen. VIII. cap. 9.
