Remember Me - Queen Henrietta To Charles 1 -

Good cheer, my love, as we venture forth Over land and sea without recourse Banished to rove us we three No matter the tempest, remember me As I was in our former life In love promoting,you formed your wife No trickery connived to gain my trust In wooing me you contained your lust To ensure my purity on wedding day No act to spare me as together we lay Now bitter tidings have blown us around Emerging battle scarred with lopsided crown In my aching heart I know it to be true In constancy our lives shall arise anew Exiled I must depart to foreign shore For asylum aid I had to implore No coinage purse to tie about my velvet kirtle I can do without Remember me and your luckless child As he clings to me knowing you are defiled My last note written in heart rung pain Shall I ever find you well again Confined as you are in London Tower As friends gather to plot your salvation hour Keep alive your love for goodness sake A promised recompense I trust to make The ship's last call to board has come With heavy heart I see baggage heaved on Keepsake I send thee, in this note I kiss A beribboned silver piece I threaded this Etched in memory to my only true one Remember me when all deeds are done.
