Eras. Ep. [Edit. Allen, I. No. 214.]	50. WARHAM to ERASMUS.
	Promises him 150 nobles at his arrival if he will come and spend the rest of his life in England.
27 May. Eras. Ep. IV. 6. [Edit. Allen, I. No. 215.]	51. [5736.] WM. LORD MOUNTJOY to ERASMUS.
	Is assured that he will cease to mourn when he learns that Henricus Octavus, or rather Octavius, has succeeded his father. What may not Erasmus augur of a prince whose admirable disposition is so well known to him—whose friendship he possesses—and from whom Erasmus has received a letter written wholly with his own hand? If he could see how nobly, how wisely, the prince behaves, is sure he would hasten to England. All England is in ecstasies. Extortion is put down—liberality is the order of the day. When the King was saying to Mountjoy, a few days since, he wished he had more learning, Mountjoy told him, this was not expected of him, but that he should patronize learned men. On which Henry replied: "Certainly; we could hardly live without them." Had received two letters from Erasmus, dated Rome, 29th and 30th April; is glad to be consulted, and have an opportunity of removing his anxieties. Advises him to visit England. Instead of being under obligation to Mountjoy, Mountjoy feels he is under obligations to Erasmus he can never repay, for Erasmus has conferred immortality upon him. Has received his Adagia; disowns the liberal compliments with which Erasmus loads him; for who will endure to hear him styled literatissimus? The work is highly commended especially by (Warham) abp. of Canterbury, who sends him 5l. for his journey hither, and promises him a living. Mountjoy adds 5l. more. Is sorry Erasmus did not have his health in Italy; never wished his going there. Incloses a bill for the money. Greenwich, 6 kl. Jun.
