【BBC女王的宫殿】圣十字架宫18



       
       
        圣十字架宫是王室血腥历史的见证。历史上有名的苏格兰玛丽女王——号称当时最美丽的女人就曾住在城堡塔楼中。玛丽15岁嫁给法国王室,19岁丈夫去世又回到苏格兰,在民众拥戴中登上王位。玛丽女王在叛变中失掉王位并逃往英格兰,囚禁19年后被处死。玛丽女王的秘书在塔楼中被刺56刀而死,现在这里还立着一块指示牌。这就不难理解为什么圣十字架宫会经常传出闹鬼的传闻了。

Mary Queen of Scots, poor girl, believed that Queen Elizabeth was on her side. I think Elizabeth was genuinely horrified when this problem arrived unexpectedly on her doorstep. So she made sure that Mary Queen of Scots would be locked up in close confinement all the time she stayed in England and really left it at that.
In a world torn apart by religion, Catholic Mary was now prisoner in her Protestant cousin's kingdom. Elizabeth was the cat and poor Mary the mouse.
Mary just got more and more desperate and I think she just wanted some dramatic resolution of this situation and a plot against Elizabeth's life was her foolish way of pursuing the same.至于玛丽,形势越见危急,她失去权位,恐怕性命也难保,于是逃往英格兰,向表姊伊利沙伯女皇求助。
可怜的苏格兰女皇玛丽,她以为伊利沙伯女皇站在她一边我看伊利沙伯见到麻烦突然找上门,真的大吃一惊。所以她把玛丽关起来、严密监视,就不再理会。
在这个因宗教而动荡不安的世界中,信奉天主教的玛丽,被信奉新教的表姊囚禁起来。伊利沙伯是猫,可怜的玛丽变成鼠。
玛丽越来越惶恐,为挽救困局,挺而走险,竟然愚蠢到阴谋刺杀伊利沙伯,带来的后果是无可避免的。
