[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.
