What hath come to your mind concerning a Match with the Prince of Florence, and our Lady Anne, deserves better reffections then I am able for the present to make of it; setting aside the interest which might move the Duke of Florence to desire it. I am verily perswaded that the great respect he hath for the Duke of York, would set a great weight upon his Inclination to carry him towards it; I had yesterday a Letter from the Duke of Florence, who continues his pressing earnestness for compassing the business which hath been so often mentioned. I doubt it may linger a great while if such a reason be expected as may satisfy the Enemies of Religion. I think it might suffice to alledge, that Mr. Platt is very unwelcome to the Duke of Florence.
