Refined, virtuous, with a quiet grace, Jane Seymour took life very seriously. As a lady-in-waiting at King Henry's court, she had served both Katherine of Aragon and Anne Boleyn -- and she had seen them both die. Yet when Henry decided to make her his next queen, she accepted readily because she loved him. And Henry rejoiced in finding such a loving and gentle woman -- who was not at all lilke his former wives. It should have been a long and idyllic marriage . . . .
