Henry’s sudden departure from the country – under cover of the night, without the consent of the parliament or even the knowledge of most of the Wawel court – provoked understandable outrage among the Polish nobility. The king’s conduct left the Poles gravely offended and their anger quickly turned on those Frenchmen who were left behind in Cracow. Some were merely insulted; others suffered physical harm. The king’s compatriots soon followed his example, fleeing in panic and leaving behind nothing but dust – and a few unflattering poems, such as this one:

Once safely out of Poland, Henry headed south across Moravia until he reached Vienna. There, he found the money his mummy had sent him so he could afford his journey home. From that moment on, Henry was no longer in a rush. The threat of being stuck in Poland forever had passed and the French throne – kept warm for her darling boy by Catherine de’ Medici – could wait a little longer. The king chose a roundabout route back to France, skirting the Alps from the south and treating himself to the holiday of a lifetime in northern Italy. The weather there was far milder than in Poland (especially now that summer had arrived), and the culture was, without question, of a considerably higher calibre. And if ever questioned by his mum, he could always claim that his grand tour of Venice, Padua, Ferrara, Mantua and Turin had been a series of highly important diplomatic visits aimed at improving relations between the Italian city-states and France – which, fifteen years after the end of the Italian Wars, were still far from cordial.

The highlight of the entire journey was undoubtedly the visit to Venice, where Henry was greeted with great enthusiasm by both the highest dignitaries – including the Doge and the Patriarch of Venice – and by ordinary citizens, who no doubt appreciated the fact that the monarch of France and Poland was visiting their city as an honoured guest rather than a&nbsp;bloodthirsty conqueror. Throughout the week of his stay (18–24 July 1574), the king travelled the canals aboard a&nbsp;grand golden galley, surrounded by dozens of gondolas and accompanied by music, cannon salutes and the ringing of bells. He toured local landmarks and art collections, paid visits to luxurious courtesans, attended theatrical performances and firework displays, witnessed a&nbsp;demonstration of Venetian glassmaking and watched a&nbsp;traditional fistfight staged on the Bridge of Fists. And, of course, he enjoyed lavish banquets, which were so extravagant that the authorities of the Venetian Republic had to temporarily suspend the local sumptuary laws.<ref>{{Cyt
