[3] In London Anne of Denmark appointed a tire-maker Dorothy Speckard as a servant in her household, while Blanche Swansted was tire maker to Princess Elizabeth.

In 1608 the queen of France, Margaret of Valois, sent Anna of Denmark a set of flowers and jewels for head tires housed in a cabinet scented with musk and ambergris.

She had an audience with Anne of Denmark, and presented her with her a portrait of the Spanish Infanta and ruler of the Netherlands, Isabella Clara Eugenia, and brought some letters from her.

In 1606, Thomas Edmondes, or his assistant William Trumbull, had presented Albert and Isabella with portraits of James, Anne, and Prince Henry.

[10] The ambassador's household in Paris in 1610 included Jean Beaulieu, William Devick, John Woodford the secretary, James the Butler, Robin the porter, the cook, Thomas the footman, a lackey, and other serving men.

Wood recovered and came to England with the Arundels, but Edmondes worsened and after seven weeks her symptoms included, "a bloody flux and fever and great obstructions in her liver".
