One Sundayafter his recovery, when the emperor was at mass in the cathedral ofToledo, seated according to custom with all the nobility in their properstations, Cortes came there rather late, designedly as it was said, afterall were seated; and, passing before all the others, took his place nextthe Conde de Nasao, who sat nearest the emperor. This gave great offenceto many, though some said it was done by desire of the emperor. IndeedCortes felt his elevation so much, that he ceased to hold some... of hispatrons in the estimation they deserved, bestowing his whole attentions onthe Duke of Bejar, the Admiral, and the Conde de Nasao. He appliedlikewise to the emperor to be reappointed to the government of New Spain;but, though supported in this request by his noble patrons, his majestyrefused compliance, and from this time he did not seem so much in favouras before. The emperor now proceeded on a journey to Flanders; and shortly after hisdeparture, Cortes was married to Donna Juanna de Zuniga, on which occasionhe presented his lady with the most magnificent jewels that had ever beenseen in Spain.
