From the Paper:
"She is the subject of numerous poems and songs, and mother to Elizabeth I, the most famous of all England's monarchs. She captivated noblemen, and even the king of England. Though not a beautiful woman, Anne Boleyn had an allure that men found irresistible. It was this allure that became her triumph and ultimately, her downfall. The second of the infamous Henry VIII's wives, Anne plotted and planned to become queen of England, a position that she held for less than four years before she was brought up on charges of high treason. Despite the fact that she was only in her twenties when she was executed, Anne left a lasting mark on the English monarchy and the whole of British history."
