Note 1323 — Chapter XIII
Reading edition
Compare the Pope’s letter of March 6, informing Charles IX that he has sent troops to him under Sforza and has prayed to God for victory (Potter, Pie V, 28; ed. Gouban, Book III, letter 9, p. 148) with the letter of congratulation of March 28, after he had learned of the battle (ibid., p. 31; ed. Gouban, Book III, letter 10, p. 151). The duke of Anjou sent the flags and standards captured at Jarnac to Rome (Potter, Pie V, p. 54; ed. Gouban, Book III, 167, letter 17, April 26, 1569).
