Now (saith he) the differences betwéene the French and English were also recon|ciled.

Both the one and the other bore yet so tender age, that infinit accidents might happen, before perfection of yeeres would make them able to establish matrimonie. There was made betwene them a league defensiue, wherin were com|prehended Cesar, and the king of Spaine, in case they would ratifie it in a certeine time.
