page 167 note a “His breeches and doublet were white, the collar of the doublet exceeding rich, and over all a mantle of rich cloth of gold, a present from the queen, who wore one of the same; this robe was ornamented with pearls and precious stones; and wearing the collar of the Garter.” Louvaine narrative.—In Simon Renard's letter to the emperor, on the 14th June, he reported, that “The quene has had a collar (of the Garter) made, which cost seven or eight thousand crowna, besides several rich dresses for his highness; but, except this, I see no great preparation by the nobility, or by the people, for his reception.” Tytler, ii. 416.

Miss Strickland (who quite misinterprets the present passage, in her Lives of the Queens, vol. v. p. 380,) supposes the purse-bearer to have been the lady Margaret Douglas; but that lady was now countess of Lennox.
