The Life and Letters of Ogier Ghiselin de Busbecq, Volumes 1 and 2

Note 150 — LETTER I. (continued 2)

Reading edition

In all the Latin editions of Busbecq the date is given as September 1, 1554. This is manifestly wrong, as may be shown by internal evidence, as for example the date of the marriage of Philip and Mary, July 25, 1554. Busbecq was present at this marriage, and was not summoned to Vienna till November 3, 1554, see page 77. He must, therefore, have returned in 1555.
