Editorial Review
The Letters of Henry VIII to Anne Boleyn, perhaps the most remarkable documents of the kind known to exist, were published at Oxford in 1720. They appear to have been written after Anne Boleyn had been sent away from court, in consequence of reports injurious to her reputation, which had begun to be publicly circulated. Her removal indeed was so abrupt that she had resolved never to return. The king soon repented his harshness, and strove to persuade her to come back; but, it was a long time, and not without great trouble, before he could induce her to comply.
Excerpt:
Consider well, my mistress, that absence from you grieves me sorely,
hoping that it is not your will that it should be so; but if I knew for certain
that you voluntarily desired it, I could do no other than mourn my ill-fortune,
and by degrees abate my great folly. And so, for lack of time, I make an
end of this rude letter, beseeching you to give credence to this bearer
in all that he will tell you from me.
Written by the hand of your entire Servant,
H. R.
