"Upon his return to court, Henry explained that he had refused to see Mary on account of her obstinacy, which 'came from her Spanish Blood'. But when the French Ambassador mentioned how 'very well brought up' she was, 'the tears came into his [Henry's] eyes and he could not refrain from praising her'.
- Mary Tudor, Anna Whitelock. P. 62.

As his first surviving legitimate child, he called her “his pearl of the world”, carrying her in his arms and প্রদর্শিত হচ্ছে her off to courtiers (Henry VIII 500 facts)
Oh broken angel Were আপনি sad when he crushed all your dreams? Oh broken angel Inside you're dying 'cause আপনি can't believe He would leave আপনি alone And leave আপনি so cold When আপনি were his daughter But the blood in your veins As আপনি carry his name Turns thinner than water You're just a broken angel

And now you've grown up With this notion that আপনি were to blame And আপনি seem so strong sometimes But I know that আপনি still feel the same As that little girl who shined like an angel Even after his lazy হৃদয় put আপনি through hell Oh broken angel Were আপনি sad when he crushed all your dreams? Oh broken অ্যাঞ্জেল

আপনি showed him all the best of you But I'm afraid your best Wasn't good enough And know he never wanted you At least not the way আপনি wanted yourself to be loved And আপনি feel like আপনি were a mistake He's not worth all those tears that won't go away I wish আপনি could see that Still আপনি try to impress him But he never will listen

But she will sing 'Till everything burns While everyone screams Burning their lies Burning my dreams All of this hate And all of this pain I'll burn it all down As my anger reigns 'Till everything burns

She sits in her corner গান গাওয়া herself to sleep Wrapped in all of the promises That no one seems to keep She no longer cries to herself, No tears left to wash away .

I'm going to read "Bloody Mary" দ্বারা Carolly Erickson: someone has read one of her biografies yet? I've just finished the Anne Boleyn's one and I found it great: Carolly writes very well :)

I just finished a biography about the real Mary Tudor. That poor woman suffered so much in her life and ended up being treated as the villain. According to the biography some things such as reintroducing certain coinage to England was started in her reign, and Elizabeth has been প্রদত্ত full credit for it.
I think আরো research is needed on Mary Tudor!!
