What is the poem of Catherine aragon?

Catherine of Aragon's poem to Henry VIII

From the depths of my despair,

I, Catherine of Aragon,

Write this poem to you,

Henry, my husband,

My king.

I have loved you with all my heart,

And served you with all my strength.

I have borne you children,

And shared your joys and sorrows.

But now, you cast me aside,

For a younger, more beautiful woman.

My heart is broken,

My soul is wounded,

But I will not despair.

I will not let you win.

I will fight for my rights,

And for the rights of my children.

I will not be forgotten,

And I will not be silenced.

I am Catherine of Aragon,

First Queen of England,

And I will never surrender!
