Shortly afterwards Henry despatched, in his turn, the Earl of Worcester, the Bishop of Ely, Lord St. John, Sir Nicholas Vaux, Sir John Pechy, Sir Thomas Boleyn..., and a retinue rivalling that of Bonnivet, to Paris ; as 1 The treaty of marriage between the two royal children was signed in London on the 14th of October, 1518.
