Looks like we can date the letter to the early part of 1547 then, considering Francis died in March that year.

Reply to comment by HermanCainsGhost in Hercules statue, approximately 2,000 years old, discovered in Greece - The Jerusalem Post by DRKILLM0NGER
Bunch of people misreading the article. It says the statue dates back to the 2nd century CE (100-200 CE), the peak of the Roman Empire. It is not stated where in the Empire the statue was originally built, as this is not known. However it was later used to adorn a Greek building during the Byzantine period around the 8th or 9th century. During this time, the locals would have referred to it as Heracles.

To add more info, there's 5 main types of virus in the herpes family that you'll often come across.
HHV-1: Herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1), causes cold sores.
HHV-2: Herpes simplex virus 2 (HSV-2), causes genital herpes.
HHV-3: Varicella zoster virus (VZV), causes chickenpox and shingles.
HHV-4: Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), causes mononucleosis (glandular fever) and various lymphoid diseases.
HHV-5: Cytomegalovirus (CMV), another cause of mononucleosis.
But yeah the everyday usage of the word herpes is just for the herpes simplexes (HSV-1 and HSV-2).
