Chopin is wonderful!

You’re welcome. Tyndale was truly a remarkable man, and his English New Testament was a wonderful gift to our world!

I’m glad that you thought the song sounded good. About mixing classical music with hymns, I guess you can say that’s “my thing”. Thanks for listening and sharing.🙂

Thank-you so much! I’m really glad that you enjoyed the video. Machiavellian is a good word to describe Sand. It does seem that her focus was on self-interest, she lacked empathy, and held a disregard for morality. Those who knew her accused her of being abusive in relationships. Chopin was truly one of the great composers from the past. I also love his music! It’s so true that composing would have been much more challenging in that era, and he was often sick. We are so blessed to be able to enjoy the music of Chopin today!

Thanks for your encouragement. I’m so glad that you are enjoying the talks! Blessings to you!🙂

Thanks for your comment. The history that I’m giving on Zwingle is from D’Aubigne and I am reading much of it from the text. I have not read MacCullough’s book, but I do believe that D’Aubigne gives a good portrayal of the reformer. Zwingle had his faults, and I do not agree with his joining politics with religion. Yet, I believe that Zwingle was a humble man. He came from a humble life, and for his time was rather free from pride of rank and from the influence of bigotry and priestcraft. Jesus chose for His disciples men who were humble and teachable. I believe that Zwingle was such a man. He seemed to be less influenced by the false teachings of his time. The truths that he learned also enabled him to instruct and train others. I believe that Zwingle was an important reformer of the Protestant Reformation of the 16th century.

I agree. Isabella does seem to be rather angelic. It’s kinda crazy that Isabella of Valois was married to King Richard II at the age of 6 years old! She was actually 5 days short of her 7th birthday when she was brought to the church where she and Richard were married. Isabella’s dolls were included in her trousseau! Richard is said to have seen her young age as an advantage because he thought that he would be able to shape her in accordance with his ideal. Although Richard was 22 years Isabella’s senior, he felt that he was young enough to wait for her to grow up to the Canonical law for sexual consummation at the age of 12! Richard died before Isabella reached 12 years. They were married in 1396 and Richard died in 1400. His death was probably from starvation after being imprisoned and his rival cousin Henry taking the throne. It’s said that the platonic relationship that Isabella and Richard had was comparable to a father and adopted daughter or a niece and a doting uncle. Richard treated Isabella with respect and as the daughter that he and Anne never had. Richard would entertain Isabella’s ladies-in-waiting with humorous conversation and lavished Isabella with gifts and toys. It’s said that Isabella enjoyed and looked forward to the visits.

@@KristinBolden I had just wroted a musical about these two, and in the screenplay, it says Richard II and Issabella had four children: 3 daughters and 1 son. They even had 12 grandchildren, eight nieces and six nephews including Henry VI.

@@dgreene051 From my history search Richard II did not have any children. Isabella was widowed for three years after marrying Richard II, she then married Charles Valois, Duke of Orleans. Richard II cousin was Henry of Bolingbroke. Henry got rid of Richard II and took the throne as Henry IV. Henry IV wished to marry Isabella to his son who was near her own age (barely entering her teens). Isabella was repulsed at the idea and her family in France campaigned for her return. Eventually Isabella was allowed to leave England and she married Charles Valois, Duke of Orleans. Isabella and Charles had one daughter Jeanne de Orleans. Isabella died giving birth to her daughter. Some sources say that Isabella was 19 when she died in childbirth. Other sources say that she was more like 20 or 21. Isabella of Valois is buried in Paris.

@@KristinBolden Ohh! That's so sad.

Thanks, I’m glad that you enjoyed it. The song is simple but very beautiful!

I’m glad that you enjoyed it!👍

Thanks! My week is good and I hope the same is with you. God’s Blessings!🙂

Thanks, I’m glad that you enjoyed it!🙂

It is about both Zwingle and Samson. I guess it was not only Germany that had a “Tetzel”!

I agree! There are reformers from the Protestant Reformation that many know nothing about. I have recently learned about some reformers that I never knew even existed.

I am so glad that you are enjoying the talks! I also think that it is a fascinating history that D’ Aubigne brings out. So many details that don’t seem to be generally known. Blessings❣️

It is a beautiful hymn! I’m glad that you enjoyed it!🙂

That’s awesome! I love the instrument too!👍

Thanks!

Thanks!

I’m so glad that it was a blessing to you!

Yes, it would be nice to know what they both really looked like. Maybe Richard II had a reddish blond hair. Chroniclers have mentioned Anne’s beauty. The inscription on her tomb describes her as “beauteous in body and her face was gentle and pretty.” However, some think that the effigy of her shows her as rather plain and slightly plump. We know that when she first arrived in England she was referred to as a “little scrap of humanity”. Whatever she looked like on the outside, there’s no doubt to me that she was very beautiful on the inside! Anne made the horned, Bohemian style headdress the fashion for Englishwomen in the late 14th century.

Hello! I am doing well and I hope the same is with you. Thanks for your encouragement, I’m glad that you are enjoying the video’s!

@@KristinBolden I do love your videos. You are wonderful! Have a blessed week! ☺️🤗
