  • The song is about Mary, Queen of Scots, who after being overthrown by Scottish nobles and forced to abdicate and flee to England for safety, was imprisoned by Elizabeth I for 19 years, and moved from remote estate to estate to prevent assistance reaching her.

    After attracting several Catholic plots to murder Elizabeth and put her (Mary) on the throne, she was eventually tried and found guilty of treason -even though she was not an English subject- and beheaded at Fotheringay Castle.

  • hauntingly beautiful.
