After her last speech, all shred of hope she might have held on to slowly left her body and soul as she kneeled down and prayed to God one last time. The act itself by the swordsman was swift and smooth— God did take mercy on her after all. Anne Boleyn, the woman who had changed the course of history, was now dead. Despite Henry's efforts to destroy her reputation, she would forever be immortalised, in all her intelligence and strength, in the injustice of her death. —  Thorns, Lust, and Glory: The Betrayal of Anne Boleyn, Estelle Paranque
