Within moments she stood naked before him, aside from her garters and stockings." Why is it that ye always strip me bare but leave these things on?" she asked absently as he stepped back to work at his own clothing." To give you something to complain about?" he said with a big grin.Lydia Dare
About This Quote
At the beginning of this quote, Anne Boleyn is complaining about being stripped bare, but when King Henry takes it in stride she begins to complain about her stockings and garters. Why is she complaining? Because she knows he's going to take everything off of her and leave her in only her shift and hose. He's teasing her and wants her to know that she can't complain when he strips the rest of her.
