Pope not giving you the answer you want? Try another one.

The Pope had still not granted a dispensation for the marriage of Prince Edward and Anne Neville; Louis's patience had lone since been exhausted, and in desperation he had sent the Grand Vicar of Bayeux to procure one from the Eastern Orthodox Patriarch of Jerusalem. This arrived in December, at which time the King moved to Amboise where the wedding would take place.
