Transcriber's Note

Archaic and variant spelling is preserved as printed. This includes French variants, for instance, hommage. The author uses both Mezeray and Mezerai to refer to the French historian.

The following have been noted as possible errors:

Page xv--references the illustration facing page 140 as an image depicting St. Ursula; however, the plate caption states that it depicts St. Helena. By reference to the original _Grandes Heures_ (available on Gallica at http://gallica.bnf.fr) it appears that the plate caption is correct. However, the differing references are preserved as printed.

Page 102--includes the quote "chastily and devoutly." This has been preserved as printed on the assumption that this was the spelling in an original source.

Page 114--includes the term 'zebeline'. This is more usually spelled as 'zibeline' or 'zibelline', but is preserved as printed.

Page 115--the extract from the 'Farce du Cuvier' references one of the characters as Jacquemet; however, the original source (History of French Literature Vol. 1, by Henri Van Laun, 1878) has this character as Jaquinot. It is preserved here as printed.

Page 218--includes the quoted matter 'defect sufflatorium in igne'. This should be 'defecit sufflatorium', but as the material is quoted, it is preserved as printed.

Page 222--includes quoted verse by Marot. Reference to other editions of Marot's work suggest that this verse should read as follows:

'Tous deux aimons gens pleins d'honnesteté, Tous deux aimons honneur & netteté, Tous deux aimons à d'aucun ne mesdire, Tous deux aimons un meilleur propos dire, Tous deux aimons à nous trouver en lieux, Où ne sont point gens melancolieux, Tous deux aimons la musique chanter, Tous deux aimons les livres frequenter: Que diray plus? Ce mot là dire j'ose, Et le diray, que presque en toute chose Nous ressemblons: fors que j'ai plus d'esmoy, Et que tu as le cœur plus dur que moy:'

The quoted version in the text has been preserved as printed.

Page 224--Bayaret should probably read as Bayard, but it is preserved as printed.

Page 231--includes reference to the title 'Historié du Progrès de l'heresie', but omits the accents. This is preserved as printed.
