A Romantic Love Letter written by Henry VIII to Anne Boleyn.

It is believed that this romantic love letter was written in 1528

To Anne Boleyn

My Mistress and Friend,
I and my heart put ourselves in your hands, begging you to recommend us to your good grace and not to let absence lessen your affection…or myself the pang of absence is already to great, and when I think of the increase of what I must needs suffer it would be well nigh intolerable but for my firm hope of your unchangeable affection…

Henry VIII

In this letter from King Henry VIII (1491 - 1547) of England, although still married to Catherine of Aragon, expresses his love to Anne Boleyn. He divorced Catherine in 1533 to marry Anne Boleyn. Unfortunately for Anne Boleyn that love did not last very long and she was publicly executed for what was believed by historians to be false accusations of infidelity in 1536.
