Reading edition
Another famous Frenchman at the Court of James I. was Theodore Mayerne the Court Doctor (cp. Table Talk of Bishop Hurd, Ox. Hist. Soc. Collectanea, ser. 2, p. 390); also Jean de Schelandre and Montchrétien among men of letters. James refused to give audience to the poet Théophile de Viau, exiled for his daring satires. Boisrobert, St. Amant, Voiture, likewise visited England at this period.
