Note 1377 — Chapter XIV

An awkward delay occurred at this time owing to the fact that Teligny’s safe-conduct provided for his coming to the King, but made no statement as to his departure. On December 14 the queen of Navarre and her son demanded “un passeport plus ample” from the King. When it came with a revised form, negotiations were resumed (Commentaires et lettres de Montluc, III, 263, note; C. S. P. For., No. 643, January, 1570. For details of these protracted negotiations see La Popelinière, Book XXII; Delaborde, III, 176 ff.). In Appendix XX will be found a long document consisting of a great number of articles proposed by the queen of Navarre, the princes of Navarre and Condé, and the other chiefs of the Huguenot party, for the pacification of France, and divided under the heads of religion, restitution of goods and estates, council and justice, arms, and finances, together with measures to be taken to insure the performance of the edict (February 4, 1570).
