When the king had said, the Queen departed without any thing, saying. Then she was called, to know whether she would abide by her appeal,1 or answer there before the Legates. Her Proctor answered that she would abide by her appeal. That notwithstanding, the Counsellors on both sides every day almost, met and debated this matter substantially, so that at the last the divines were all of opinion, that the marriage was against the law of God, if she were carnally known by the first brother, which thing she clearly denied. But to that was answered, that prince Arthur her husband confessed the act done, by certain words spoken, which being recorded in other Chronicles, I had rather should there be red, then by me here uttered. Furthermore, at the time of the death of prince Arthur, she thought and judged that she was with child, and for that cause, the king was deferred from the title & creation of the Prince of Wales, almost half a year, which thing could not have been judged, if she had not been carnally known.
