page iii note * She was born at Windsor, 11th September, 1275. For a moat interesting account of the daughters of Edward I. see the “Lives of the Princesses of England “by Mrs. Green. That of the Princess Margaret begins at vol. ii. p. 363. In this work the valuable public records of the period have for the first time been turned to good account for biographical purposes, and the result has been a delightful and veracious work. Several of the following remarks are indebted to its pages; but, the object now being to trace the prince rather than the princess, the original documents which are quoted have been consulted (except in the case of the Fœdera), and the extracts are translated from them.
page iii note † Fœdera, vol. i. part 2, p. 550. The covenants in the contract for the marriage of John son of the Count of Holland with the Princess Elizabeth were similar. In that case, too, the same determination for an alliance existed, for the Count's daughter had been pledged to the King's eldest son Alfonso, who had died.
page iv note * See a letter of the prince to King Edward after this visit. It is given from the Tower Records in Mrs, Green's work, ii. p. 367.
page v note * This marriage was never completed. The Pope was opposed to it, and Edward was very loth to part with his daughter, upon whom he had at one time settled the crown. See Mrs. Green's Life of this princess.
page vi note * Wardrobe Account, 18 Edw. I.
page vi note † Ibid. The passage is as follows: “Domino Gruillielmo Arnoldi militi Vasconiæ familiari Regis existentis, &c. per 19 dies apud London′ ad ordinandum et faciendum quoynteysias in quibus ipse et socii sui trippaverunt ad foros Wasconiæ die festi nuptiarum Dominæ Margaretæ, pro expensis suis 51s.”
page vii note * Wardrobe Account, 18 Edw. I.
page vii note † Ibid.
page vii note ‡ With the exception of this document and a household account of the Prince Edward, it seems. that little light can be thrown upon the life of Prince John for that particular time. Before taking up the subject of the document in question, the subsequent history of the Prince has been glanced at.
page viii note * Fœd, part II. p. 802.
page Viii note † Ibid. p. 854. For extracts from Ward. Aco. 25 Edw. I. shewing the splendid equipment the Princess had on leaving England, see Mrs, Green's work, pp. 382–386.
page ix note * The original receipt of the squire, Cornelius de Gysingham by name, is in the Chapter House.
page x note * The Roll consists of four membranes, two of which (the second and fourth) are very small and are written in the ordinary hand of the period; membranes one and three are written in a decidedly foreign character.
page xi note * This hiatus occura in the middle of a membrane; previous to the entry relating to 1st March. There is no gap or sign of incompleteness, the only thing to be remarked is that the ink is darker coloured.
