On the other hand, Lady Jane was not as bold to lead others during her short reign. Lady Jane Grey only held power for a few days before meeting her demise along with her husband. As a woman in power, Lady Jane had a promising outlook to being Queen, but Mary I held this opportunity back because she was to inherit the position, not Lady Jane. Although, through Lady Jane’s writings, she was a very strong- willed person that was firm on what she believed, but this was not all she needed to become queen. Lady Jane wrote in a prayer, “O Lord, thou God and Father of my life, hear me, poor and desolate woman, which flieth unto thee only, in all troubles and miseries” (“Women in Power”, 673). This was a sign that she was admitting defeat in her reign of power and

Though Squaw Poems is tinged with subtle naïve defiance, The Red & White is far less hopeful and is a poem solemn duress. In the final stanza, Mary’s efforts to try to live to appease white expectations are shown to be pointless. No matter how hard Mary tried, inevitably her true colours and that of her children shone though the ephemeral

In the stories of “Mary Queen of Scots” and “Elizabeth I”, it is known that Mary and Elizabeth I are two different people, but also the similar in some ways. Both Elizabeth and Mary lived within the same time period and were even related, although their lives ended up completely different. Elizabeth was a well-respected queen with an interesting personal life. Mary on the other hand was convicted of aiding a homicide and had many problems in her personal life. Therefore, Elizabeth and Mary both had some similarities and differences between their early lives and their personal lives.

Another example of imagery in the story is when the author used it to describe Emily when she ask for poison to the druggist.“still a slight woman, though thinner than usual, with cold, haughty black eyes in a face the flesh of which was strained across the temples and about the eyes ockets as you imagine a lighthouse-keepers face ought to look”. The author makes emphasis in Emily’s face and eyes meaning that she is lost in her own world and foreshadows that Emily would use the poison for something wrong.

My cousin, the Queen of England, Elizabeth I, has had me imprisoned for the last 19 years. I am to be executed for corresponding with Anthony Babington who has been plotting to kill Elizabeth. I chose to write my life, my story, in a measly journal so that whosoever lands upon it my see how I, Mary, Queen of Scots, portray it. I have lived it, so only my Creator knows it better than I.

Imagine a world were only one person had the sovereignty of a nation through his bloodline and was not chosen by the people of the nation. This form of government is known as absolute monarchism which was practiced since the beginning of the middle ages till this day (Pope Francis, Vatican City). When it comes to a monarchy, it is composed of an individual(s) (king or queen) who reigns till his death and has a divine right appointed by God to be the ruler. The divine right was a doctrine that plead in favor of absolute monarchism, which means that the power of the rulers came by God’s authority and could not be downsized by any earthly organization such as the government or even the parliament. The Queen Elizabeth I, ‘The Virgin Queen’, also

In "Thou Bland Mans Mark", by Sir Philip, he uses poetic devices such as alliteration, repetition, and symbolism to show how he feels about desire. The speaker of this poem thinks that desire is the "band of evils,"therefore the speaker thinks desire is the beginning of evil. He expresses "with price of a mangled mind". Desire can take over your mind and destroy it. Using a repetition of vain, he tries to get his point across about the awful things of desire. We should not desire things and take what we have in vain. Vain can ruin our thoughts. Symbolism is seen when he speaks about the "blind man." the term "blind man" is also used as an example to the bible. This shows that you can be 'blind' and get led into the sin of desire. Tn the end

When Mary was the monarch of Scotland, the Calvinist nobles deposed of her, and she fled to England for safety (Spielvogel 408). Since she was the daughter of Henry VIII’s sister, Mary held a legitimate claim to the throne after Elizabeth. In fact, many Catholics saw Henry’s second marriage to Anne Boleyn as improper, making Mary the more fitting queen for England (Sifakis 1). Seeing opportunity in this woman who “had no intention of altering her faith,” the Catholics plotted to place her on the English throne (Black 68). They took part in many failed assassination plots on Elizabeth, one of them being the Babington Plot of 1586. This nefarious plan held Mary’s controversial involvement, leading to her trial, conviction, and execution (Sifakis 2). With a resolve “to end the threats to her regime,” Elizabeth ended her cousin’s life through a beheading (Spielvogel 408). Both Elizabeth’s decision to get rid of Mary and the construction of religious compromise were Machiavellian because of her pragmatic way of thinking to ensure a successful reign.

Living strictly under Queen Elizabeth I has many down sides. You listen to what she says and you practice the religion that she wants you too, you have no choices. Constantly being forced to do as told by Queen Elizabeth I says takes a toll on the colonists. That could all possibly change, now that there is a way to go to America. Not knowing what the New World will hold, people from England traveled across the Atlantic Ocean to get rich and be able to practice their own religion. The men traveled to America and had a very extended journey but they were very excited for what the new world held for them. All the men traveling had expectations of what the New World was going to be like and didn’t want the trip to take as long as it did. Once the colonist got there they soon had to realize that reality was going to sank in and they saw what it was actually going to be like at this new place.

"Thy love is such I can no way repay,..." is another example of imagery (9). Symbolizing how great her love is for her husband, she is expresses there is no way to purchase or pay for true love.

Imagery plays an imperative role in creating emotional duality throughout the text. The reader is presented to the narrator being called upon by the Queen. When the narrator looks behind, “[the Queen’s] expression, at first quizzical, now turned joyous, showing brilliant white and perfect teeth” (lines 3-4). Verghese’s use of imagery through this line magnificently illustrates the Queen’s enthusiasm to see who she has called upon. At first, the quizzical countenance of the Queen’s face arouses misperception in the reader, questioning why she is puzzled to lay eyes on the narrator, but soon resolved when her expression turns joyous. The joyous mood created through this line is epitomized through the dazzling imagery as she shows her brilliant white and perfect teeth through her smile. Soon after, the narrator ascertains the Queen as Tsige, as he “towered over her…tongue-tied” (line 9). The use of the idiom, tongue-tied illustrates to the reader

When opening her speech, she informs the soldiers of how she was advised to have “fear for treachery” however she still addresses the soldiers as “faithful and loving people” (Elizabeth I). This act of prowess not only adds to her credibility, but also creates guilt for those who chose to abandon them. By addressing this problem, Elizabeth I effectively teaches soldiers the foolishness of turning against them and urges those who have to conform again. She also injects patriotism in her troops through the discussion of their dilemma, saying she “think[s] foul scorn that Parma or Spain, or any prince of Europe, should dare to invade the borders of [her] realm”. Using words with negative connotation such as “foul scorn” to describe the enemies builds hatred in the soldiers; this hatred obliges them to defeat the enemy regardless of other factors. This also puts England on a pedestal, stating how much of a crime it would be to invade such a glorious country, which further boosts the soldiers’ patriotism. This further If all fails, the queen promises an award for more materialistic soldiers.

ELIZABETH: Spoke or silent, a promise is surely made. And she may dote on it now—I am sure she does—and thinks to kill me, then to take my place.

Sixteenth century England experienced a phenomenon sometimes referred to as the Age of Queens. The decisive power of the country was placed in women’s hands and their reigns were watched with a reasonable doubt. There is contrast of rule in terms of reigns between Queen Mary and Queen Elizabeth of England, both of whom were engaged in a protracted struggle for the English throne. Beside the legitimacy of their claims, there are more significant considerations which predestined them to either increase or lose their power. The rule and attitudes of the two monarchs bore significant influence upon the times in which they lived, including social, political and legal precedents which were being challenged and in some cases reversed. The fact that both Queens encountered situations of striking similarity, serves as a suitable example for a remarkable comparison, helping to analyze the lives of the two Queens and how their lives diverged as a result of such encounters and their actions thereafter. They were both Queens, struggling for the throne, they were women as well as rivals; they both had affairs with married men, however, one managed a narrow escape from the disgraceful situation, while the other failed to do so. Mary grew to hate Anne Boleyn, mother of Elizabeth, because he took the position of her mother Catharine as Queen of England. Before Elizabeth came to the scene, Mary was loved and was the only child of King Henry VIII of
