Extracts from the letters of Don Fernando to various kings and princes of the world

Zazie@Cocanha has scanned extracts from two versions of the highly amusing Cartas d’el Rei D. Fernando, O Catholico, a varios reis e principes do mundo, e suas respostas: colligidas e commentadas por Fr. Antonio Tarfan de los Godos, Commendador na Ordem de S. João de Jerusalem: the first bunch from a manuscript in the collection of the Évora Public and Municipal Library and the second from the 1842 edition printed in Porto. My previous comment re date is obviously complete bollocks, so tell us more Zazie!
