Excerpt from Calendar of State Papers, Foreign Series, of the Reign of Elizabeth, 1560-1561, Vol. 3: Presented in the State Paper Department of Her Majesty's Public Record Office
Court, upon his return to Paris, that at his departure from London, a few days before, the Queen had no intention whatever of aiding the insurgent Scots. For a time this policy was successful, and Cecil prided himself upon the skill with which he had practised, as the phrase was among courtiers. But as soon as her preparations were complete the Queen threw off the disguise. Proclaiming that the foundation of all her doings were laid upon honour and truth, which she esteems above all things, she formally intimated to the Queen Regent that unless She sent home the French tr00ps which were at that time garrisoned in Scotland, it would become the duty of England to expel them by force.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book offers an account of a turbulent year in European history (1560â"1561) through a collection of diplomatic papers. Covering negotiations and events primarily between England, France, and Scotland, the author traces the causes and consequences of the major conflicts of the time period. The text examines the political and diplomatic strategies employed by key figures, such as Elizabeth I, Mary Queen of Scots, and the Duke of Norfolk, providing insight into their aims, power struggles, and the impact of their decisions on the future of Europe. The documents reveal the motivations behind the mobilization of English troops towards Scotland, the siege of Leith, and the eventual Treaty of Edinburgh, all of which set the stage for the escalation of hostilities between England and France, and ultimately, the Wars of Religion.
