‘certain dards faytz a

‘Une darde’ was a short spear with a two-edged, leaf-shaped blade, which, given the source (or perhaps the fashion) of the weapons, suggests ‘boar spear’. For the 1531 gift see Nicolas,

Lisle Letters
, i. p. xxxii
[LP,

date is wrong, and proposed May/June 1530 to Summer 1532. The letter, however, clearly comes at the start of a summer progress and must refer to a royal visit to Waltham on a Monday in July/Aug., i.e. 8 Aug. 1532. The other possible date is 9 Aug. 1529, which seems too early

The partisan nature of the ceremony was emphasized by the countess of Rutland being a daughter of Sir William Paston, a Norfolk neighbour of the Boleyns, and the countess of Derby being the stepsister of Anne’s mother. The duke of Norfolk’s estranged wife was intended to be present, but probably refused:

Anne was described as both ‘marquis’ and ‘marchioness’ of Pembroke. The point in the former title was that she held a newly created peerage in her own right, not (as was the case otherwise) by virtue of marriage. But for convenience I have used ‘lady marquis’ or the female form.
