In chapter five you learned that Annes brother George shared a great deal of bond with her and throughout the chapters you can tell that he is by her side. Anne meets master thomas wyatt and he writes a verse about her that I had to read 3 times to really understand what he was trying to say. That is a foreign language that will give you a migraine, but I guess that's what people would say about me speaking Laotion. Thomas wyatt says in the verse "in a net I seek to hold the wind." And from what I got out of that was Thomas saying Anne is the wind and he is the net and that Anne just seems to find her way pass him or through him and he's trying to get a hold of her but seems impossible. Thomas describes how Anne use to "fancy" him when they were younger and that she even asked him to marry her but he was out chasing other women at the time and didn't want to be lock down to one woman at that time. Wyatt was just a squirrel trying to get a nut at that age I mean who wasn't? He did the right thing by exploring what the world has to offer and now that they're older, he realized he always loved her and he says he "regrets chasing other quarry" but I know that's a lie haha. Anne also had an effect on Thomas and his wife. His wife hated him and their sex life was at little to none because of the fact that she and he both knew that their was no passion between the two of them anymore. Does anyone else thinks this story is starting to sound like that movie "Something about Mary"? Hahaha
In Chapter Six her brother George delivers her a letter from the king it and basically he's reassuring Anne that his love is real and that he hopes to see her soon. George also told Anne that he heard Katherine call Anne a whore and in today's world we call a person talking smack about another is a hater! After hearing what she's been called by the queen, she is ready to throw down with the queen. She has no doubt that the queen is going to try and stop the king from being with Anne.
In chapter seven she comes across a book of hours that belonged to her mother. The book of hours was give to her mother by her husband and Anne said she can relate to the book so much that her mother decided to give it to her as a reminder of God and her love for her (anne). Anne is also to be chaperone by her mother, brother or her father to protect Annes reputation. She talks about her independent being taken away and how the modern day anne would not take some controlling her life. I'm also very independent and when I think someone is trying to take that from me I get into a defensive mode. Anne was asked to serve the queen as usual and she was furious haha I mean who would want to serve your worst enemy as they stand in your face with a smirk knowing they have control over you? Henry got these girls cat fighting for his love... Henry showered her with a gold necklace amongst other valuable gifts and started thinking she was being bought which I think so... her uncle comes into the picture and ask her straight up if she has slept with the king and I balled out laughing cause its something I would of asked too lol
In chapter eight she is worried about the consequences that will come for standing up to her uncle for his rude question/assumption. This chapter also introduced her dear friend Anne gainsford who was described as a friend who would be with her til the very end. Rumours spread like wild fire and that's what happened in this chapter with the secret between Henry and Anne. It's no surprise now that Anne and Henry have a thing and now Katherine the queen knows as well. Things are getting heated and I'm looking forward to how he will handle these two ladies under the same roof...
