Extract

Through the favour of Mr. Bennett, of Norwich, who lately permitted me to exhibit a curious Instrument under the Seal of Mary Queen of Scots, I now inclose to you two other historical Documents, which you will be good enough to lay before the Society, if you should consider them to be of sufficient interest.

page 171 note c Mary's zeal for the Roman Catholic Religion, and her desire to see it re-established in Scotland, are sufficiently apparent in three autograph Letters addressed by her in 1564, 1565, and 1568, the former, written in French, to Pius the Fourth, and the two latter in Latin, to Pius the Fifth, the originals of which are preserved at Rome in the Barberini Library. I have been favoured with the perusal of transcripts of these Documents, which I hope will be given to the public in Mr. Ellis's second series of Original Letters illustrative of English History.
