It was barely two days since the last cavalcade of that nature, that of the Flemish ambassadors charged with concluding the marriage between the dauphin and Marguerite of Flanders, had made its entry into Paris, to the great annoyance of M. le Cardinal de Bourbon, who, for the sake of pleasing the king, had been obliged to assume an amiable mien towards this whole rustic rabble of Flemish burgomasters, and to regale them at his Hôtel de Bourbon, with a very "pretty morality, allegorical satire, and farce," while a driving rain drenched the magnificent tapestries at his door.
Izan ere bi egun lehenago gisa horretara apaindutako zalduneria ikusia zuten, enbaxadore flandestarrak delfina eta Margarita Flandeskoa ezkontzeko tratua egitera Parisera etorri zirenean. Borboiko kardinal jauna asko haserretu zen, zeren erregeari atsegin ematearren alkate flandestarrezko nekazari-talde han aurpegi ona erakutsi behar izan baitzion.
