There was a man named Will at the picnic with a monkey, we are then informed that Ann Boleyn is afraid of them. Ann and her ladies in waiting dance while the men watch.  At the end of the chapter Henry tells Ann that he loves her.  Ann turns away, but then turns back responding, I love you too.  

Chapter 18:  Chapter eighteen is about the May Day festivals.  Ann is upset that the queen is attending, and decides to stay inside. Ann then talks with Nan, giving her the book, Obedience of a Christian Man.  Ann knows that the book will be stolen from Nan, but tells her to keep it close.
