Anne Boleyn entered the glittering, dangerous world of the Tudor court in her 20s.

but she knew how to exploit her natural vivaciousness to play the game of courtly love for all it was worth.

His poems are heavy with the conventional lover's sighs,

not good enough for an ambitious girl on the make.
這對滿心抱負 追名逐利的安妮遠遠不夠
And beside, there was another reason why Wyatt would never catch his hind,as his poem goes on to explain.
除此之外 還有另一個原因讓懷亞特難獲芳心 他曾在詩中寫道
