Summary

Description
English: A modern tribute to James V's queen, expressing sentiments that would not be shared by many of her Scottish contemporaries who saw her as an obstacle to the Protestant Reformation. She was taken ill during the Siege of Leith (1560) and returned to the Castle where she died, aged 45. Her body lay for nine months in St. Margaret's Chapel before arrangements were made to take it to France. She was buried in the Convent of Saint-Pierre in Rheims where her sister was Abbess.
