[Footnote 86: The Regent, Louise of Savoy, told the Scotch ambassador,
that she knew the Queen and Council were too wise to give up an ancient
friend for an enemy who wished to become reconciled to Scotland, in
order to separate it from France (Teulet, i., 49).]
[Footnote 87: Henry confessed to Chapuys that the father was said to
be mad, and it was not known whether the son would be so too, but that
they would rather marry the Princess to him than to the Scotch King
(Chapuys to Charles V., 28th June 1532, Vienna Archives).]

[Footnote 94: Mr. Friedmann considers (vol. i., p. 163) that this was
the moment when Anne became Henry’s mistress; but the love-letters
which the King addressed to her in 1528-29 point to a different
conclusion.]
