Henry VI had come to the throne as a ninemonthold baby and England had been governed by a council of noblemen. But now, at the age of 23, Henry seemed no more capable of ruling than he had as a baby. It' s not clear exactly when Margaret realised how utterly incapable her husband was, but what happened seven years into their marriage left no room for doubt. To Margaret' s delight, in 1453 she gave birth to her first child, a healthy boy named Edward. But Henry took no part in the celebrations. Ten weeks before the birth, his fragile mental faculties had disintegrated completely and he' d fallen into a catatonic trance. |
