Remarks

At the end of the year 1559, Michel de l'Hospital, then chancellor to Marguerite of France, rejoined the latter at Dun-le-Roi, whence he accompanied her to Nice, where she was to meet her new husband, Emmanuel-Philibert, Duke of Savoy. Michel de l'Hospital dedicated his account of this journey to his friend Jacques du Faur, Master of Requests of the Parliament of Paris
