Note 1089 — INTRODUCTORY NOTICE TO BOOK FIFTH.
Reading edition
In both edit. 1611, the paragraph ends in this abrupt manner. The addition of the word "received" might supply the "&c.," as it refers to a message from England, which was sent by John Tamworth; but not being duly accredited, in order to avoid acknowledging Darnley as King, he consequently "was not well received." See Keith's History, vol. ii. p. 351.
