The Wise Virgin

Jocelyn, the heroine of this tale of Tudor times, attracts the attention of Henry VIII. Her predicament is understandable - to marry the bluebeard King is to risk death by the hangman's axe, but to reject a king is to court the same fate. It demands all Jocelyn's wit and tact to evade the king's lecherous and unwelcome advances. But eventually she succeeds and is able to marry her own true love, while silly, pretty, flighty Katherine Howard takes her place at the King's side.
