[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).

[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.
[95] Camusat, Meslanges, vol. ii., f. 106. Chapuys writes that: Not content with having given her all his own jewels, Henry sent the Duke of Norfolk to try to obtain the Queen’s also. Katharine replied “that she would not send jewels or anything else to the King, as he had long ago forbidden her to do so; and besides, it was against her conscience to give her jewels to adorn a person who was the scandal of Christendom, and a disgrace to the King who was taking her to such an assembly; however, if the King sent expressly to ask for them, she would obey him in this as in other things. Though he was vexed at what she said, he did not fail to send for them by one of his own chamber, who had letters to the Queen’s chancellor and chamberlain as well as to herself. The man told her, the King was surprised that she had not sent her jewels, as the Queen of France and many others had done. She excused herself, and sent all she had; with which the King was much pleased” (Gairdner, Cal., v., 1377).
