lapetiteboullan:Women’s History Meme [2/5] ExecutionsAnne Boleyn, Queen Consort of England & Marquess of PembrokeExecuted on false charges of Adultery, Incest, and Treason 19 May 1536“Good Christian people, I am come hither to die, for according to the law, and by the law I am judged to die, and therefore I will speak nothing against it. I am come hither to accuse no man, nor to speak anything of that, whereof I am accused and condemned to die, but I pray God save the king and send him long to reign over you, for a gentler nor a more merciful prince was there never: and to me he was ever a good, a gentle and sovereign lord. And if any person will meddle of my cause, I require them to judge the best. And thus I take my leave of the world and of you all, and I heartily desire you all to pray for me. O Lord have mercy on me, to God I commend my soul.“-Anne Boleyn’s execution speech -- source link
