His passion…carried him at last beyond all bounds of reason; and he offered to share his throne, as well as his heart, with the woman, whose beauty of person, and dignity of character seemed so well to entitle her to both. The marriage was privately celebrated at Grafton [on the 1st of May 1464]. The secret was carefully kept for some time: no one suspected, that so libertine a prince could sacrifice so much to a romantic passion.

the white queen meme: [3/10] characters - edward iv
You backed a king whose court was poison, whose taxes were unpayable and who murdered men he had smiled on and pardoned, and yet you called him pious?! Well, now your pious Henry is defeated, and I am King. ..Your Lancastrian Queen murdered my father and brother, and stuck their heads on spikes. So do not talk to me of justice!
