Reading edition
The Chronique de François I. p. 121, mentions among the ambassadors those of the emperor, of the King of England, of Venice, and of other princes, lordships, cities, marquises, counts, and barons of Germany, Italy, and elsewhere.
[261] This speech of which Theodore Beza and Mezeray speak in their histories is found in the Chronique de François I., published by Guiffrey in 1860, and the Registers of the Hôtel de Ville quite bear out the Chronique.
