Note 064
Sherefeddin (l. vi. c. 24) mentions the
ambassadors of one of the most potent sovereigns of Europe.
We know that it was Henry III. king of Castile; and the
curious relation of his two embassies is still extant,
(Mariana, Hist. Hispan. l. xix. c. 11, tom. ii. p. 329, 330.
Avertissement a l'Hist. de Timur Bec, p. 28 - 33.) There
appears likewise to have been some correspondence between
the Mogul emperor and the court of Charles VII. king of
France, (Histoire de France, par Velly et Villaret, tom.
xii. p. 336.)]
