As Goris indicates (642-3), Del Canto (together with Castellanos and Albert van Loo) continued to be reponsible for the auditing of certain accounts, at least in 1561-2. They were together instructed to examine the accounts of two Spanish factors at Antwerp, Juan López Gallo and ‘Juan Flemingo’, on the termination of their duties, with a view to releasing them from further financial liability.

⁸⁰ His escape must have taken place some time before October, whe n the Seville Inquisition acknowledged the reply of the Council of th e Inquisition at Toledo to its original report. The Seville officials now wrote: ‘Sobre la fuga de Agustin Boacio se an fecho las diligencias que Vuestra Senoria manda y todas las otras que an parescido convenir, y s e procede y procederá contra los culpados y se hará justicia; y con el primero navío que aya para Nueva España se enbiará la carta de su Reverendísima y escrevirá al arçobispo de México’ (Archivo Histórico Nacional, Madrid, Inquisición, 4442-47 [=letter of 17 October 1560]). Boazio had been in Mexico; now he went to Antwerp.

⁸⁴ AGS, Estado, 586–125. The dating of this letter, where he speaks of the occasion, poses a problem. The date given at the end is ‘12 May 1564’; however, in the course of it, the contador speaks of having been called before Viglius ‘ayer viernes 9 de junio’. According to his accounts, on this latter date he was still away in Antwerp, where he records spending fifteen days from 28 May to 11 June. A solution is suggested by his reference in the letter to the arrival at Brussels ‘about a month ago’ (awa un mes) of the new Spanish ambassador to England on his way to take up his post. Since Guzman de Silva did not get as far as Paris until 25 April and then had official engagements there, it seems clear that the letter itself must date from June and not from May. This conclusion is supported by the fact that 9 June was, as Del Canto says, a Friday, whereas 9 May was a Tuesday.

⁹⁰ It seems clear that the Boazio episode, and the king's reaction to it, was still very much in her mind. As late as April 1565 she was assuring Philip that she had gone on thinking ‘quel que si potesse fare per che Vra M^ta venisse servita di quanto desidera in questo particulare’; if any new opportunity offered itself for arresting che Genoese, the king could rely on her not to let it slip (AGS, Estado, 527-56, 57) (=letter of 11 April 1565).

⁹¹ ‘Todo esto causa el presidente Viglios que no quiere que se les haga nenguna molestia, de tal manera que todo lo que su Alteza manda que se haga, él lo deshaze y manda a todas las justicias de los pueblos que hagan al contrario, y lo mismo haze en todos los consejos, por manera que este públicamente tiene usurpado i tiraniçado el govierno i la justicia, que no se haze más de lo que él quiere. … Yo jamás me he engañado por que tengo entendida su mala intención y el fabor que haze a los ereges, y si no, véase por el firaile de Brujas español que mandó soltar, y por los otros ereges, que no basta con él que se sentencien, y él fue causa que se soltase en Anvers el Agustín Boasio’ (AGS, Estado, 526-96).

¹¹⁴ AGS, Estado, 528–18, 7, 6 (=letters of 17 March, 26 April and 24 May 1565). Already i n October 1564 Granvelle had written to the king of Viglius's eagerness to retire from public life (AGS, Estado, 526-21, 24 (=letters of 8 and 12 October)). In the latter, addressed to Gonzalo Perez, he writes: ‘avisanme que ny au n el pobre presidente osa dezir palabra en contrario desto, sino que escrive lo que le mandan, y … representando el lo que se devria escrivir po r la verdad, le dizen que no es bien indignar a S. M. contra los estados, que seria hazerles mala obra’ {PCG, viii, 410). This gives a very different picture of Viglius from what Del Canto and Villavicencio had been writing of him only a few months before. They saw Viglius as prominent among those deliberately misleading the Regent by assuring her that the religious position in the Low Countries was satisfactory when it was not (see Villavicencio's letter of 25 June, and Del Canto's letters of 12 Jun e and 1 July 1564: AGS, Estado, 526-95, 125, 96). Granvelle's presentation of the case perhaps helps to explain the view that has commonly been taken of Viglius.
