The poem about Henrietta Maria by Oscar Wilde is so haunting. The love story between Charles I and Henrietta Maria is an amazing tribute to loyalty and devotion and all the things marriage should be. Though first four years of their relationship was turbulent, they came to love each other so dearly, that when Henrietta Maria learned of her husbands capture and imprisonment she wrote a letter from where she was in exile in France, begging Cromwell to allow her to return to England and share her husbands imprisonment and eventual fate. No one opened it until many years after Charles had been beheaded.
