Henry VII
.
See also:Born at See also:Temple Newsam in See also:Yorkshire on the 7th of See also:December 1545, he was educated in See also:England, and his lack of intellectual ability was compensated for by exceptional skill in military exercises
.
After the See also:death of See also:Francis II. of See also:France in 156o See also:Darnley was sent into that See also:country by his mother, who hoped that he would become king of England on See also:Elizabeth's death, and who already entertained the See also:idea of his See also:marriage with Mary, queen of Scots, the widow of Francis, as a means to this end
.
Consequently in 1561 both Lady Margaret and her son, who were English subjects, were imprisoned by Elizabeth ; but they were soon released,,and Darnley spent some See also:- TIME (0. Eng. Lima, cf. Icel. timi, Swed. timme, hour, Dan. time; from the root also seen in " tide," properly the time of between the flow and ebb of the sea, cf. O. Eng. getidan, to happen, " even-tide," &c.; it is not directly related to Lat. tempus)

- TIME, STANDARD
time at the English See also:court before proceeding to See also:Scotland in See also:February 1565
.
The marriage of Mary and Darnley was now a question of See also:practical politics, and the queen, having nursed her new suitor through an attack of See also:measles, soon made up her mind to wed him, saying he " was the properest and best proportioned See also:long See also:man that ever she had seen." The attitude of Elizabeth towards this marriage is difficult to understand
.
She had permitted Darnley to See also:journey to Scotland, and it has been asserted that she entangled Mary into this See also:union; but on the other See also:hand she and her See also:council declared their dislike of the proposed marriage, and ordered Darnley and his See also:father to repair to See also:London, a command which was disobeyed
.
In See also:March 1565 there were rumours that the marriage had already taken See also:place, but it was actually celebrated at Holyrood on the 29th of See also:July 1565
.
Although Mary had doubtless a See also:short infatuation for Darnley, the union was mainly due to See also:political motives, and in view of the characters of See also:- BRIDE (a common Teutonic word, e.g..Goth. bruths, O. Eng. bryd, O. H. Ger. prs2t, Mod. Ger. Bract, Dut. bruid, possibly derived from the root bru-, cook, brew; from the med. latinized form bruta, in the sense of daughter-in-law, is derived the Fr. bru)
bride and bridegroom it is not surprising that trouble soon arose between them
.
Contrary to his expectations Darnley did not receive the See also:crown matrimonial, and his foolish and haughty behaviour, his vicious habits, and his boisterous companions did not improve matters
.
He was on See also:bad terms with the See also:regent See also:- MURRAY

Murray and other powerful nobles, who disliked the marriage and were intriguing with Elizabeth
.
Scotland was filled with rumours of See also:plot and assassination, and See also:civil See also:war was only narrowly avoided
.
Unable to take any serious See also:part in affairs of See also:state, Darnley soon became estranged from his wife
.
He believed that Mary's relations with See also:David See also:Rizzio injured him as a husband, and was easily persuaded to assent to the See also:murder of the See also:Italian, a See also:crime in which he took part
.
Immediately afterwards, however, flattered and cajoled by the queen, he
betrayed his associates to her, and assisted her to See also:- ESCAPE (in mid. Eng. eschape or escape, from the O. Fr. eschapper, modern echapper, and escaper, low Lat. escapium, from ex, out of, and cappa, cape, cloak; cf. for the sense development the Gr. iichueoOat, literally to put off one's clothes, hence to sli
escape from Holyrood to See also:Dunbar
.
Owing to these revelations he was deserted and distrusted by his companions in the murder, and soon lost the queen's favour
.
In these circumstances he decided to leave Scotland, but a variety of causes prevented his departure; and meanwhile at Craigmillar a See also:band of nobles undertook to See also:free Mary from her husband, who refused to be See also:present at the See also:baptism of his son, See also:- JAMES

The details of the See also:conspiracy at Craigmillar are not clear, nor is it certain what part, if any, Mary took in these proceedings
.
The first intention may have been to obtain a See also:divorce for the queen, but it was soon decided that Darnley must be killed
.
Rumours of the plot came to his ears, and he fled from Stirling to See also:Glasgow, where he See also:fell See also:ill, possibly by poisoning, and where Mary came to visit him
.
Another reconciliation took place between husband and wife, and Darnley was persuaded to journey with Mary by easy stages to See also:Edinburgh
.
Apartments were prepared for the pair at See also:Kirk o' See also:- FIELD (a word common to many West German languages, cf. Ger. Feld, Dutch veld, possibly cognate with O.E. f olde, the earth, and ultimately with root of the Gr. irAaror, broad)

Field, a See also:house just inside the See also:city walls, and here they remained for a few days
.
On the evening of the 9th of February 1567 Mary took an affectionate farewell of her husband, and went to attend some gaieties in Edinburgh
.
A few See also:hours later, on the See also:morning of the loth, Kirk o' Field was blown up with See also:gunpowder
.
Darnley's See also:body was found at some distance from the house, and it is supposed that he was strangled whilst making his escape
.
The remains were afterwards buried in the See also:chapel at Holyrood
.
Much discussion has taken place about this crime, and the See also:guilt or innocence of Mary is still a question of doubt and debate
.
It seems highly probable, however, that the queen was See also:accessory to the murder, which was organized by her See also:lover and third husband, See also:Bothwell (q.v.)
.
As the father of King James I., Darnley is the See also:direct ancestor of all the sovereigns of England since 1603
.
Personally he was a very insignificant See also:character and his See also:sole See also:title to fame is his connexion with Mary, queen, of Scots
