Miscellaneous 1493

Jan. 16. St. Mark's Library. Venice. 70. Return of Henry VII. to England.
News arrived from England that King Henry had returned to the island after making peace with the King of France, who promised to give him the annual tribute (censo) of 1,000 crowns. King Henry was ill looked on in the kingdom, and all the English were dissatisfied, because to wage the war on France he had taken much money from the people, which was not expended, and he made peace in order to keep the money for himself.
