Here also lives Margaret Tudor, sister to Henry VIII, wife to James Stuart of Scotland - a royal lady whose private hell of frantic jealousy for her sovereign lord is hidden beneath the public facade of pageantry.Here live witches, watchmen, priests, and beggars; common folk, cutthroats, lawyers, hawkers, lairds, apothecaries, lords and ladies - every variety of human in every degree of richness and poverty.
