Though Mary was prostrated and often delirious, during her more lucid moments she had gone through a journey of self-realisation - of the acceptance of death but also the acknowledgement that she must face up to the responsibility of being a Queen. She knew she must nominate her successor for England's sake. It was a difficult but courageous decision that Elizabeth herself evaded when her time came.
Linda Porter, Mary Tudor
Linda's so SALTY it's funny. Careful, Linda! That's a lotta sodium!

The Venetians could not hide their perplexity. Why, if Henry and Katherine were involved in a dispute that was rocking Christendom, did they still continue to attend functions together, to dine together in public and to behave, with their daughter present, as if nothing was going at all? In June 1530, the Signory in Venice were told [...] 'this most virtuous Queen maintains strenuously that all her king and lord does, is done by him for true and pure conscience' sake[...]'
Maybe this is the line that Katharine took with Mary, absolving her husband of blame, emphasising that conscience was the key to the difficulties that Henry faced. It would certainly explain Mary's otherwise misguided confidence in her father, whose conscience was actually one of the most self-serving and self-pitying in history. At an impressionable age, Mary learned that conscience was the most important justification for behaviour that anyone could make. It became her guiding principle— a clear conscience was what you owed yourself and God—and the cause of much of her unhappiness.

Margaret had been through more abrupt changes of fortune than this, and she adapted quickly. The king and queen were responsible for Mary's humiliation, but Margaret seems to have forgiven them both. She was delighted to be in Anne's circle and Henry, in turn, was delighted with her. At the New Year's celebrations in 1534 she gave him a gift and he called her to him so that he could give her a piece of plate in person. Before long Margaret was a fixture of the court, 'beautiful and highly esteemed.'
