Has made his recommendations to the King, the Queen and the ladies. The Queen will send mules and litter for his holiness as soon as possible. His powers (privileges) are despatched, also the letters for the Sieur Octovien and the Cardinal of St. Peter ad Vincula, which will be at Milan before Easter, as he has written to him. His pension (estat) from the King shall be duly paid at Rome. The King has received notice from the general of Milan that it is no fault of theirs that Palvoisin's despatch has not been sent off. Has given his recommendations to the King on the part of Cardinals Cornal, Siboux (Cibo), and Arragon. Is to make his return, and not forget Redulon. Begs he will see to the sending of his Florentine picture, and the boxes and perfumes that he promised him.
