JEANNE D'ALBRET. 113 memorable event of the time. " Les noces salees " (so called from the salt-tax, which was levied by the Crown to liquidate the expenses contracted in their celebration) were signalized by tournaments and pageants, as well during the night as day, for the space of more than a week. " Lists were constructed, in which the joustings continued by torchlight, a thing never before heard of in France. " When these amusements were finished, the duke of Cleves paid his adieux to... his young duchess, and resigning her to the custody of her mother, " until such time as she should have attained suitable years to fulfil the con- jugal engagements she had contracted, " departed to prosecute the war against the emperor, while Jeanne accompanied her parents to Pau, in Beam, the capital of their kingdom.
Whether or no her daughter's sentiments had been hitherto uninfluenced by Marguerite of Navarre, it is certain she soon exhibited a decided leaning to the Lutheran church. During the happy period of her retreat with the natural protectors of her girlhood, she daily conversed with the reformers, then refugees in Beam, and studied the Scriptures with her theo- logical preceptors, as well as under the guidance of her mother.
