Notes The marriage did not take place. In 1513 Mary became the wife of Louis XII, King of France, and on his death in 1515 returned to England, where she married Charles Brandon, Duke of Suffolk. The editor thinks this tract was suppressed; the only known copies are in the BL. Reprint by lithography. The copy at BL C.21.b.12. is the original, printed in [1508].
