Lady Mary Dudley was the wife of Sir henry Sidney, daughter
of John Dudley, Duke of Northumberland, and sister to the queen's favorite,
Robrt Dudley, Earl of Leicester. To his lady's influence Fuller, in some degree,
ascribes Sir Henry's success and favor at court; but his own merit and her

and their love and pietry were amply rewarded bt the possession of such a
son as Sir Phillip Sidney.
