[89] Riccardus Scellejus de prima causa divortii (Bibliotheca Magliabecch. at Florence). 'Catharina ita stomachata est, ut de Vulseji potentia minuenda cogitationem susciperet, quod ille cum sensisset, qui ab astrologo suo accepisset, sibi a muliere exitium imminere, de regina de gradu dejicienda consilium inivit.' [90] Lodovico Falier, Relatione di 1531 'avendo trattato, di dargli a sorella del Cristianissimo adesso maritata al re di Navarra, gli promese di far tanto con S. Sta che disfacesse le nozze.' [91] Du Bellay au Grandmaistre 21 October 1528; after Wolsey's own narrative in Le Grand, Histoire du divorce de Henri VIII, iii. 186. [92] He says so himself. Bellay's letter in Le Grand iii. 318. [93] In Sanga to Gambara, 9 February 1528. L. d. p. ii. 85. 'La cosa che V. S. sa, che non potra seguire senza gran rottura, fa S. S. facile a creder che posse essere cio che dice (Lotrec). [94] 'Considering the nature of men, being prone into novelties--the realm of England would not only enter into their accustomed divisions, but also would owe or do small devotion unto the church: wherefore his Holiness was right well content and ready to adhibit all remedy that in him was possible as in this time would serve.' Knight to the Cardinal, 1 Jan. 1528, in Burnet i. Collect. p. 22. [95] Incorrupta. Campeggi's letters to Sanga, 17, 26, 28 Oct. 1528. Laemmer, Monumenta Vaticana, 18 Oct. p. 25 seq. He gives his motive for communicating what the Queen said to him in confession as being her own wish. The archives too have long kept their secret. [96] According to Ricc. Scellejus, she prays the King, 'ne pergat suam oppugnare castitatem, quae dos erat maxima, quam posset futuro offerre marito, quaque violanda reginam etiam dominam proderet,--quoniam se illi fidelitatis sacramento obligasset.' [97] It seemed helpful to their working against the cardinal. Particularities of the life of Queen Anne, in Singer's Cavendish ii. 187. [98] Du Bellay in Le Grand iii. 296. 'Le duc de Norfolk et sa ande commencent deja a parler gros (28 Jan. 1520).' [99] In a letter of Sanga to Campeggi (Lettere di diversi autori eccellenti p. 60), we read the following words: 'In quanto alla dispensa di maritar il figliolo con la figliola del re, se con haver in questa maniera stabilita la successione S. M. si rimanesse del primo pensiero della dissolutions S. Bne inclineria assai Piu.' This looks as if a marriage between Henry VIII's natural son and Mary was spoken of.--So I wrote previously. The thing is quite true. Campeggi writes 28 Oct. to Sanga. 'Han pensato si maritar la (la figliola) con dispensa di S. Sta al figlio natural del re, a che haveva pensato anch'io per stabilimento della successione.' (Monumenta Vaticana p. 30.)
