" About sixteen, the Lord layd his hand sore upon me and smott mee with the small-pox. When I was in my affliction, I besought the Lord, and . Confessed my Pride and Vanity and he was entreated of me, and again restored me. But I rendered not to him according to ye benefit received. " Here is the only hint as to personal appearance. " Pride and Vanity, are more or less associated with a fair countenance, and though no record gives slightest detail as to form or feature, there is every reason to... suppose that the event, very near at hand, which altered every prospect in life, was influenced in degree, at least, by considerations slighted in later years, but having full weight with both. " That Thomas Dudley was a "very personable man, " we know, and there are hints that his daughter resembled him, though it was against the spirit of the time to record mere accidents of coloring or shape. But Anne s future husband was a strikingly handsome man, not likely to ignore such advantages in the wife he chose, and we may think of her as slender and dark, with heavy hair and clear, thoughtful eyes.
