Bloody Mary
King Henry VIII ‘s daughter, Bloody Mary
This evil queen’s mission, England’s Protestants to bury
Never at night did she wake
After a day yelling, “Burn him at the stake!”
* I wanted to use "off with his head" but could find no historical evidence she ever used this phrase. Only in Alice in Wonderland!
