The cardinal's letters to the pope miscarried,
And came to the eye o' the king: wherein was read,
How that the cardinal did entreat his holiness
To stay the judgment o' the divorce; for if
It did take place, 'I do,' quoth he, 'perceive
My king is tangled in affection to
A creature of the queen's, Lady Anne Bullen.'

The French king's sister: he shall marry her.

There's more in't than fair visage. Bullen!

To hear from Rome. The Marchioness of Pembroke!

Heaven bless thee!
