Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lives of the Queens of Scotland and English Princesses Connected With the Regal Succession of Great Britain, Vol. 4 Early in December, Mary returned to Holyrood for dispatch of business and her birthday celebration. It was the anniversary on which she completed her twenty-first year. The commemoration was made as usual on her name day, one of the great festivals in honor of the Virgin Mary the morning was devoted to a relig ious service, and the evening to a grand ball. Both were appa rently attended with bad effects to the Queen, for she took a severe cold in consequence of being over-long at her prayers in the damp Chapel-royal, and did not improve her feverish symptoms by the fatigue of dancing over-much at her ball in the evening. Randolph, the English embassador, writes to Cecil on the 13th of December, that when he arrived in Edinburgh, he understood the Queen kept her'bed, and that her illness was attributed to her exertions in dancing on the above occasion but that he was inclined to think with her, that she had taken cold in the chapel with the length of the service.1 The real cause of her illness was probably her return to Edinburgh - a climate almost as in imical to her as it had proved to Magdalene of France.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lives of the Queens of Scotland and English Princesses, Vol. 5: Connected With the Regal Succession of Great Britain The machinery for the revolution which was to transfer the sceptre of Scotland from the hand of Mary Stuart to that of her infant boy, the unconscious puppet in whose name the elective sovereignty of a regency might be exercised by the leader of that movement, was suggested by the matrimonial jars between her and her consort but these were not the exciting causes.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lives of the Queens of Scotland and English Princesses, Vol. 1: Connected With the Regal Succession of Great Britain The Biographies of Royal Females who have played distinguished parts in the history of a country - especially those who have been involved in the storms caused by revolutions in popular opinion - afford not only instances of lofty and heroic characteristics elicited by striking reverses of fortune, but the most touching examples of all that is lovely, holy, and endearing in Womanhood. "If," as the Duchess de Bourbon said to her unfortunate kinswoman, Margaret of Anjou, "a book were to be written on the calamities of illustrious ladies of royal birth," it would, doubtless, exceed in pathos and dramatic interest all the tragedies in the world. It would form an extensive series of volumes, in which daughters of every family inheriting the fatal distinction of royalty, in every age and country, might find a place: and who more mournfully pre-eminent than Mary Stuart, and several of the Princesses connected with the regal succession of Great Britain? Of Queens of England who have fallen by the hand of the executioner, or died broken-hearted exiles in foreign lands, it is unnecessary to speak here, their memorials having already been placed before the reader.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lives of the Queens of Scotland and English Princesses Connected With the Regal Succession of Great Britain, Vol. 3 More books have been written about Mary Stuart than all the Queens in the world put together; but so greatly do they vary in their representations of her character, that at first it seems scarcely credible how any person could be so differently described. The outline is indeed the same, but, having been colored from opposite points of view, the features become angelic or demoni acal according to the disposition of the lights and shades. The triumph of a creed and a party has, on either side, been more considered than the development of facts, or those principles of moral justice which ought to animate the pen of the historian; and, after all the literary gladiatorship that has been exercised on this subject for nearly three centuries, the point of Mary's guilt or innocence remains undecided, and as much open to dis cussion as ever.
