She has lived with her mother so long now, just the two of them. All of the fun memory's they have had together could just disappear

her acceptance from others is what differs among the two religious texts. Both the Proto-Gospel and Luke portray Mary as a humble figure. The Proto-Gospel paints Mary as humble during the scene with Elizabeth. Mary visits Elizabeth to inform her of what the archangel Gabriel has told her. Elizabeth blesses Mary and tells her how her child has leaped in her womb.

King Henry IV needed help from Queen Elizabeth in 1591, so she sends them help (Alchin 13). Henry IV decided to declare war on Spain in 1595.
