much spirit and resolution in resisting the project. She died professing the protestant faith, in a manner to set at rest all doubts about her creed. Anne was a woman of an accomplished mind, and she evinced towards her husband more affection than such a man could hare been expected to elicit That she had a smart wit an well as an affectionate heart, is evidenced by a collection of brief notes addressed to James in a pretty and legible Italian hand. The date of her death is 1618 or 1619.
ANNE OF FERRARA,
Daughter of Hercules the Second, duke of Ferrara, married in 1549, Francis duke of Guise, and behaved with great spirit and courage during the wars of the League. She was imprisoned for some time at Blois.
ANNE OF RUSSIA,
Daughter of Yaroslav, prince of Kiev, married to Henry the First of France, in 1044; after his death, she married Raoul, who was allied to her first husband; in consequence of which she was excommunicated, and at last repudiated, when she returned to Russia. Historians differ much in their accounts of the leading events in the life of tills princess.
ANNE OF WARWICK,
Was born at Warwick Castle, in 1454. She was almost entirely educated at Calais, though she was often brought to England with her sister, Isabel, and seems to have been a favourite companion, from her childhood, of the duke of Gloucester, afterwards Richard the Third, who was two years older than herself. In August, 1471 Anne was married, at Angers, France, to Edward of Lancaster, son of Henry the Sixth and Margaret of Anjou, and rightful heir to the English throne. She was very much attached to him, and when he was barbarously murdered after the fatal battle of Tewksbury, in 1471, she mourned him bitterly.

She was, however, discovered by him, and, after a resolute resistance, forced to marry him in 1473. There are strong proofs that Anne never consented to this marriage. Her son Edward was born at Middleham Castle, 1474. By a series of crimes, Richard obtained the throne of England, and was crowned, with his consort, July 5th., 1483. In 1484, Anne's only son died, and from this time her health declined. There were rumours that the king intended to divorce her, but her death, in 1485, spared him that sin. She had suffered all her life from the crimes of others, and yet her sorrows and calamities seem to have been borne with great meekness, and, till the death of her son, with fortitude.
ANNE,
Queen of England, second daughter of James the Second, by his first wife Anne Hyde, was born at Twickenham, on the 6th. of February, 1664.
