27 February 1534
Extract from the dispatch from Chapuys to Charles V.
Since the king began to doubt whether his lady was enccintc [pregnant] or not, he has renewed and increased the love he formerly had for a very beautiful damsel of the Court; and because the said lady (demoiselle, qu. dame ?) wished to drive her away, the king has been very angry, telling his said lady (dame) that she had good reason to be content with what he had done for her, which he would not do now if the thing were to begin, and that she should consider from what she had come, and several other things. To which it is not well to attach too much importance, considering the changeable character of the said king and the craft of the said lady, who knows well how to manage him.
