Good people, though I am innocent of the desire to betray my queen

Good people, though I am innocent of the desire to betray my queen,

yet was I an accomplice by my presence, acquiescent in my silence.

I hope my fate will serve as a warning for those who'd rise against the crown.

If I can save one life dying thus, then I should not have died in vain!

Now, good people, Jane Dudley bids you all a long farewell.

Fare you well, a long farewell, farewell forevermore.

I am glad it is a fair day; farewell.

Into thy hands, I commend my spirit, O God!
