[Footnote 279: It is said that Charles did not believe this.]

August, 1662, he went to visit her, and she told him "many observable

[Footnote 288: Salvetti says the Parliamentary party regretted him "come
quello che aveva sempre assicurato detto Parlamento per bocca dell'
Ambasciatore di Francia che era qui, che da quella banda haverebbe havuto
ogni assistenza per mantenimento della sua libertà e privilegii: certo è
che l'Ambasciatore fece la parte sua et causò in buona parte la divisione
et cattiva intelligenza che passa fra il re e il Parlamento!"--Add. MS.,
27,962, K., f. 32_b._]
[Footnote 289: This document, which is among the Archives of the Ministère
des Affaires Etrangères Ang., t. 48, is unsigned and without date, but it
is in the handwriting of Montagu, and is among the documents of 1641; it
speaks of "la rebellion presente d'Angleterre," which points to its having
been drawn up after the final rupture in 1642.]
[Footnote 290: Montagu had a good many enemies in France among the
Importants, who disliked him as a friend of Mazarin and as a foreigner who
had great influence with the Queen-Regent.]

Hollande."--Brienne to Sabran, December 21st, 1644. Add. MS., 5460.]
