“Swooning with fear, Lady Rochford was dragged to the blood-soaked scaffold.  In her final words, she maintained her innocence as being Kathryn’s procuress, but admitted that she had  “falsely accused” her late husband “of loving in an incestuous manner, his sister, Queen Anne Boleyn. For this I deserve to die”.”

I do have to say,  I do feel she deserved her punishment.  She lies not only directly cost two people their lives, but she also left the future Queen Elizabeth motherless.  I can not help but think, what if Anne was spared her life and simply divorced.  Would Elizabeth been able to know her mother?  Would she have become the Queen she was? Would she have outlived Henry?   Would be interesting indeed.
