Henry Plantagenet married Eleanora, duchess of Aquitainc, daughter of William, Count de Poitou, May-day, 1152. They were crowned 19th December, 1154. The English chose to regard Henry II solely as the descendant of their ancient Saxon line. "Thou art son, " said they, "to the most glorious Empress Matilda, whose mother was Matilda Atheling, daughter to Margaret, saint and queen, whose father was Edward, son to King Edmund Ironside, who was great grandson to King Alfred. " Henry died 6th July, 1...189. Eleanora died 1204. She declared herself to be Eleanora, by the lurath of God, queen of England. John, son of Henry II and Eleanora, born 1166, succeeded to the throne on the death of his brother, Richard, CQ3ur de Lion, 1199 ; married Isabella of Angouleme, only child of Americus, Count of Angouleme, surnamed Taillefer, August, 1200. King John died 1216. One of the monks present at his death remarked that "Hell felt itself defiled by the presence of John;" this may define his character, but he was splendidly endowed with literary ability, as all his ancestors were before him.
