Title: ALEXANDER FITZGERALD, BISHOP OF ST. DOMINGO, to CARDINAL [WOLSEY].
Description:

Complains of the enmity which the Queen manifests towards him, although he has been her tutor. Does not expect such a reward as was given him for five months instruction by Lady Margaret, daughter of the Emperor Maximilian, who made him Bishop, but beseeches some favour from her for his whole youth spent in her service. Requests advice as to what he shall do with the Pope's briefs.
