They failed to filch her fine and noble mien when Anne Boleyn endured the ****** stand. Poor Queen! So swift the sword on Tower Green. Fifteen thirty three could not foresee this heinous act by Cromwell’s sinful hand, yet still they failed to filch her noble mien. ‘Twas Edward sought to sully his regime, obsessed with sons not gracing merry England. Poor Queen! So swift the sword on Tower Green. How stealthily does fortune warp the scene. Betrothed in majesty; so bluntly ****** And yet, they failed to filch her noble mien The ‘hangman from Calais‘ equipped the scheme. In haste he struck the deadly blow. Poor Anne! Poor Queen! So swift the sword on Tower Green. In face of death prevailed a humble queen. ‘God praise the King; long may he rule the land’. They failed to filch her fine and noble mien Poor Queen! So swift the sword on Tower Green.

A Villanelle for Anne
They failed to filch her fine and noble mien when Anne Boleyn endured the ****** stand. Poor Queen! So swift the sword on Tower Green. Fifteen thirty three could not foresee this heinous act by Cromwell’s sinful hand, yet still they failed to filch her noble mien. ‘Twas Edward sought to sully his regime, obsessed with sons not gracing merry England. Poor Queen! So swift the sword on Tower Green. How stealthily does fortune warp the scene. Betrothed in majesty; so bluntly ****** And yet, they failed to filch her noble mien The ‘hangman from Calais‘ equipped the scheme. In haste he struck the deadly blow. Poor Anne! Poor Queen! So swift the sword on Tower Green. In face of death prevailed a humble queen. ‘God praise the King; long may he rule the land’. They failed to filch her fine and noble mien Poor Queen! So swift the sword on Tower Green.
