Anne Boleyn

Anne Boleyn - 
what a state she was in!
"If I'd have married another, instead,
I'd be standing before you with my head."

Thanks, Andrea! I sure wouldn't want to be a member of royalty - the life expectancy is too short.

I laughed at this clerihew that tells so much truth. Not even queens had it easy in medieval times.

Haha, I always wondered, if Henry 8 proposed to a woman, based on his track record, wouldn't she be thinking, "Do I really want to do this?". I wonder if they even had a choice?
