Some historians have argued that this note was planted by Mary's enemies. It was found and replanted, I think. Elizabeth's cabinet was getting very tired of Mary's antics and found her annoying. Odd thing for the NSA to tweet.

Interesting. Didn't Elizabeth dabble in the occult?

Well, I don't think so, perse--but it was discovered that someone had attempted an occult assassination against her using a voodoo doll. Many were imprisoned in the tower for this, including John Dee. Dee of course was her court astrologer as well as an occultist--a fascinating if mysterious figure.
