“Let him that is a true-born gentleman
And stands upon the honour of his birth,
If he suppose that I have pleaded truth,
From off this brier pluck a white rose with me.”

RICHARD PLANTAGENET Duke of York:
“Richard hath best deserv’d of all my sons.”
(Henry VI,3; 1,1)
#RichardIII #KingRichard #HouseofYork
The #HouseofYork sent their last king to the throne of England, as #RichardIII began his rule OTD in 1483. His reign was brief, ending two years later at the #BattleofBosworthField . Still, Richard remains famous, as Shakespeare found inspiration in the king's reputed villainy.
