The Ambassadors Letter. MADAME, I Sent Summer to the Queen of Scots for audience, who appointed me to come to her the same day after dinner, which I did. To her I did remember your Majesties hearty commendations, and declared unto her your Majesties like gladsomeness of her recovery from her late sickness, whose want of health, as it was grievous unto your Majesty, so, I told her, did you congratulate, and greatly rejoice of the good terms of health she was in for the present. After these offices of civility, I put her in remembrance again what had passed from the beginning, in the matter of your Majesties demand of Ratification, according to the Tenor of the said Treaty, as well by me at the first, as afterward by my Lord of Bedford, at his being here, and also followed sithence again by me in open audience, and by my Letter to her being in Loraine, adding hereto your Majesties further commandment, and re-charge to me again presently to renew the same demand, as before had been done. At Paris the 23 of June 1561.
