Wednesday's Riddle-Me-WHO??
Riddle Me- WHO?
First the brave King’s Head,
Then ‘off’ with hers, they said…
Young, beautiful and kind,
Yet, fault they needed to find
‘What have I done
Other than love and have fun?
They say I am to blame
For France’s great shame
My pious devotion
Causes such a commotion
My rosary I pray
Until my doom's day
When onto that block
My head I will lay’.
Then after that day,
Many would say:
France will never have seen
A kind and more gentler Queen.
In the streets all could hear:
Adieu La Reine Martyre!
