Note 403 — Chapter V
Reading edition
Theodore Beza, “the Huguenot pope,” did not reach the court until August 23, where he was cordially received by the prince of Condé, before whom he preached “in open audience, whereat was a great press” (C. S. P. For., No. 461, August 30, 1561). For the active agency of Beza at court before the assembly at Poissy met, see La Place, 155-57.
