Queen Elizabeth I poems
Queen Elizabeth I(1533-1603 / England)
Written in her French Psalter
- by Queen Elizabeth I 50
No crooked leg, no bleared eye,No part deformed out of kind,
Nor yet so ugly half can be
As is the inward suspicious mind.
In Defiance of Fortune
- by Queen Elizabeth I 46
Never think you fortune can bear the swayWhere virtue's force can cause her to obey.
