Bess Throckmorton: A popular addition to Elizabeth's coterie of maids-in-waiting, a job secured by her brother's petitions, Bess secretly married Sir Walter Raleigh and bore his child, risking all not for religion but for love. She was still buoyant in the Tower and never apologized. Their happiness would be short as he was rearrested in the Main Plot in 1603. After her husband's eventual beheading she carried his embalmed head around in a bag, in effect treating him as a martyr. She may have gotten the idea from the Shakespeare play 2 Henry VI, where Margaret of Anjou carries the head of the Duke of Suffolk, her slain lover, around.
