	From the ambassador at Rome, 3 April.—Three days ago the Pope gave the Rose to the bp. of York, English ambassador, who was accompanied to his house by the Pope's guard, the ambassadors of France, Venice, Florence and Ferrara. Christopher who is deputed to carry it, leaves on the 8th, going by France. The Pope wishes the Signory to press their negociation with the Emperor, saying that he has given the provostry of Santa Sabina to the bp. of Gurk. The Pope has a quarrel with the Emperor about calling Councils and the Emperor with him for raising the interdict. France. Hungary. Marquis of Mantua. Spanish ambassador.

	From Andrea Badoer, London, 6 April.—Wrote on 30 March of the agreement with France, and will write again fully by the messenger who leaves for Rome within three days. Councillors and King assure him it is to the Signory's advantage. Delivered to the King and Spanish ambassador the briefs for raising the excommunication. The King has written briefs to the Pope and Emperor about peace. Lest the French should see that to the Pope, it is sent in the form of a minute to be read to His Holiness by the ambassador, Bainbridge. The other to the Emperor is somewhat modified. The King has taken the office of "protector" at Rome from the Cardinal of Pavia, who is French, and given it to the Cardinal of St. Peter in Vincula. Needs money.

6 April. Adv. MS. 155.	422. JAMES IV. to the POPE (fn. 1).
	On his writing for the increased splendor of divine worship in St. Michael's College, Stirling, raised to that dignity from a chapel by Alexander VI, the Pope appointed the bp. of Galloway as dean. To give greater magnificence to the foundation, requests that the dean be called bishop and the subdean (the second on the foundation) be called the dean, "et post pontificem primus antiquum obtineat institutum"; the bp. to be the ordinary and exercise jurisdiction over the members of the foundation in nostros veros et continuos commensales. To improve the bp.'s emoluments, requests also that the Augustinian priory of Inchmahome (Dumblane dioc.) may be annexed to the deanery on the first voidance, the privileges of the place being preserved and a claustral prior appointed under the diocesan, as the Card, of St. Mark's will explain.

	From Andrea Badoer, London, 15 April.—Told the King that the Signory remitted to him their agreement with the Emperor, and stood on good terms with Hungary. The King wrote immediately to the Emperor. Awaits the answer of the first herald, but could not send the second, with the modified letters, for want of money. The King will send a doctor as ambassador to the Emperor. The Spanish ambassador favours Venice. Said to Winchester, who is alter rex, 'France is becoming great.' He answered 'The Emperor wants his share.' Told him the Emperor had got Trieste and Gorizia which were his, but Padua and Vicenza were not Imperial towns. Winchester further said 'Venice does not die, but the agreement made will soon die,' 'The King (Lewis ?) is ill,' 'The Signory will recover her state and by waiting we shall do you good,' 'That the King should become great does not make for us.' 'Our King is young; he exerts himself with the King of Spain, etc.' 'Let this year pass.' 'The Signory has a powerful army,' 'The Pope is with us and her.' Sir John Rawson, a knight of Rhodes, who is going to Venice and Rome, will speak with the Cardinal of Rouen on the way and be able to tell something.
	From Carmeliano, dated London.—An excellent letter.
	[The forsaid knight of Rhodes was introduced and seated beside the Doge, but had nothing new to tell.]
