The royal monogram of Elizabeth I, who died on this day in 1603, artfully compresses all the letters of 'ELIZABETH R' into one cypher. Shown here on a pattern pledge penny from 1601.

#OTD in 1584, Catholic priest James Fenn met a brutal fate at Tyburn—hanged, drawn, and quartered for his faith. His story is one of courage, persecution, and a heartbreaking farewell to his young daughter.

Useless quote for 23 Aug:
"For falsehood now doth flow, and subjects’ faith doth ebb,
Which should not be if reason ruled or wisdom weaved the web."
~ Elizabeth I, Queen of England, c. 1568–1571
Greensleeves Project update for World Embroidery Day.
There are a few embroidered items among the gifts presented to Greensleeves in the song, including "a smock of silk, both faire and white, with gold embrodered gorgeously"
The wonderful Juliet Braidwood is working on the smock, embroidering it with black silk and gold thread, using designs taken from contemporary sources. This photograph shows part of her work on a rose, taken from a detail on Nicholas Hilliard's 'Pelican' portrait of Elizabeth I, c1575.
The Greensleeeves Project is supported by The Society of Antiquaries of London

In addition to governing the country, did you know that Good Queene Bess was not only an accomplished musician but also a poet?
Here's a comforting verse she wrote for Walter Raleigh, to show him he was still her favourite, (even after appointing Earl of Essex Master of the Horse) - Raleigh had been complaining of neglect, and fearing a loss of her warmth, in an earlier poem ....
Went to Queen Bess' fave parish church today!
It was part of #Bedminster, which was part of #Somerset until the 1830s.
