Note 336 — Chapter VI · FIRST RELIGIOUS WAR. [1562–1563.]

Reading edition

The particulars of this plot are given in a letter from Claude of Lorraine to Damville, the date of which has been fraudulently altered from 1563 to 1560. See Vauvilliers, i. 315. Tavannes says the plot was concocted at Trent by the cardinal, and Lestoile dates the League from this period.
