[142] Cardinal du Bellai, in a letter to the Grand Master of France, the Duke de Montmorency, in 1532, says "Sometimes Madame Anne joins our party, each equipt with the bows and arrows, as is, you know, the English style in hunting." "The Lady Anne presented me with a complete hunting suit, including a hat, a bow and arrow, and a greyhound."
[143] Of this sum, which is so much greater than the usual monthly disbursements, 1743l. 8s. were for the expences of an embassy to the Emperor; 1340l. 7s. 6d. for the King's losses at play; 100l. paid into his own hands; 200l. advanced to one of his Majesty's servants for Henry's use, and 100l. for the wages of the crews of two of his ships.
[144] This sum included 4400l. paid to Sir Bryan Tuke, evidently for public affairs; probably embassies.
[145] This includes 1333l. 6s. 8d. for the payment of the "retinue" or garrison of Calais; 2490l. 1s. 4d. expended in jewels; and 100l. as a new year's gift to Anne Boleyn.
[146] Including 1886l. 15s. 4d. for jewellery and plate, and 833l. for other articles to a merchant stranger, and for cloth of gold.
[147] The cause of this sum being so disproportionate to either of the others may be explained by there being included in it 2000l. lent to the Cofferer of the Household until Michaelmas next following; 2000l. placed in the hands of Thomas Alvard "to be by him safely kept for his Graces's use and behoof;" hence 4000l. of it cannot be considered to have been spent, a remark which also applies to a few other entries; and 2000l. for the King's buildings at Westminster.
[148] In this month Henry's interview with Francis the First, at Calais, occurred, and which accounts for the increased expenditure.
[149] Of this sum 3587l. 17s. 8d. were paid for jewellery.
