October 1540

Oct. 30. Original Letter Book of Francesco Contarini in St. Mark's Library. 227. The Same to the Same.
On the day of Saints Simon and Jude the Emperor gave the Order of the Fleece to the Prince of Orange and Mons. de Buren (Governor of Friesland), with the usual ceremonies. The Papal Nuncio, the new French ambassador, Mons. de Veilly, the Portuguese and I, accompanied his Majesty to the mass. The English ambassador was not present owing to the dispute about precedence between him and the Portugese ambassador, and when one of them attends a ceremony the other absents himself.
