=__  An unwanted throne   __= It was her mother-in-law who told her that the King had made her the heir to his realm. It has now been a week since our King died and when his sister Mary found out she came and claimed the crown. Lady Jane Grey says that the news about the King making her his heir is “greatly disturbing”. Two days ago Lady Jane Grey was taken to Northumberland house where she was led to the throne. Our featuring queen started to shake as Northumberland announced Jane Grey as our new queen. Suddenly our new queen fainted and fell on the floor. When she got to herself she announced; “The crown is not my right, and pleases me not. The Lady Mary is the rightful heir”. She fell down on her knees and prayed that God for guidance and that he would give her spirit and grace that she may govern Thy glory and service, and to the advantage of the realm. Then she entered the throne and those who were present were allowed to kiss her hand and swear their allegiance to her. Yesterday when Lady Jane entered London very few people cheered and greeted her. As Jane herself most of them feel that Mary is the rightful heir to the throne. And when the crown was brought in by the Lord High Treasurer she first protested, but after a while let him put it on her head. There was also going to be made another crown for Lady Jane’s husband Guildford Dudley, but despite of Dudley’s rage and tears she insisted that they would not make him king. So now the big question is how Lady Mary going to react. Will she claim the throne or is she going to let Lady Jane have it?
 * She doesn’t want the throne. She says that Lady Mary is the rightful heir. Are her parents going to force her to be queen? How is Lady Mary going to react? **
