Anne of Denmark died in the fortysixth year of her age; no monument was erected to her memory, but her hearse stood over her grave till the Civil Wars, when it was destroyed. Her consort, James the First, who did not again enter the married state, died on the twenty-seventh of March, 1625, and her only two surviving children, Charles, created Prince of Wales, in November, 1616, and afterwards Charles the First, and Elizabeth, Queen of Bohemia, were both singularly unfortunate.

Many epitaphs and poetical tributes were written to the memory of the fondly-beloved Queen of James the First. Of these, we select from Camden's Remains the following.

Epitaph on Queen Anne of Denmark. "March, with her winds, hath struck a cedar tall,

And weeping April mourns that cedar's fall,

And May intends no flower that month shall bring,

Since she must lose the flower of all the spring.

Thus March's wind hath caused April's showers,

And yet sad May must lose her flower or flowers;

But though the beauteous queen so fondly loved,

Has left this earth to be enthroned above, She's only changed, not dead; no good prince dies,

But, like the sun, doth only set to rise."
