Stowe MS 173

EDMONDES PAPERS. Vol. VIII. (ff. 311). 1 July, 1612-24 March, 1612 [3]. Edmondes's drafts are very numerous in this volume, and are addressed to the King and to Robert Carr, Viscount Rochester. They give a very particular account of the dissensions in the French Court. James I. took great interest in the state of French parties in so far as they affeeted the Protestant religion, and his letters are devoted to this subject and to the negotiations for a marriage between Prince Henry and Christine, second daughter of Henry IV. Prince Henry died 6 Nov. 1612, but the negotiations can scarcely be said to have been broken off, for three days later a letter from Rochester expresses the King's pleasure that they should be continued, only with the substitution of the name of Pr. Charles for that of Pr. Henry. The King had not filled up the Lord Treasurer's places, thinking that, with the aid of Rochester, he could carry on the duties, at any rate of Secretary of State, himself, and this accounts for the number of letters (sixteen) bearing the royal signature. The more important of these are in the handwriting of Rochester.
