Henry VIII
[II, 3]

Anne Bullen

1214

O, God's will! much better
She ne'er had known pomp: though't be temporal,
Yet, if that quarrel, fortune, do divorce
It from the bearer, 'tis a sufferance panging
As soul and body's severing.

Henry VIII
[V, 1]

Sir Thomas Lovell

2856

So said her woman; and that her sufferance made
Almost each pang a death.
