On 13 September 1601 "at the age of fifteen" she married Ralph Sadleir (1579 – 1661) of Standon, Hertfordshire, with a dowry of £3,000.Шаблон:Sfn The marriage took place at Burghley House in Lincolnshire, where the bride's father, then Elizabeth I's Attorney General, "furnished the feast with all magnificence" and the "plate given by friends to the bride was above £800."Шаблон:Sfn Ralph was the eldest son, and heir, of the wealthy landowner, Sir Thomas Sadleir (c. 1536 – 1607), lord of the manor of Standon, and his second wife, Gertrude, daughter of Robert Markham, of Cotham, Nottinghamshire.Шаблон:Sfn Sir Henry Chauncy, writing thirty years after his death, says he delighted in hunting and hawking and the pleasures of country life; was famous for his noble table, his great hospitality to his neighbours, and his abundant charity to the poor.Шаблон:Sfn Standon Lordship, the grand manor house where the couple lived after their marriage, was built for Ralph's grandfather, Sir Ralph Sadleir (1507–1587).Шаблон:Sfn

An autograph poem about her early life appears in the smallest of her commonplace books (R.13.74):

"Hunting-field gave me Birth
Ellsing Education
Standon brought Affliction
Which made Heaven my Meditation"

These lines are thought by some to imply that her childless marriage was not a happy one.Шаблон:Sfn Emmerson and McCaffrey speculate about the marriage.Шаблон:Sfn

Her mother died in 1598 when she was thirteen and she was particularly close to her father.Шаблон:Sfn He visited Anne in 1603 when James VI of Scotland stayed two nights at Standon on his way to London to claim the English throne.Шаблон:Sfn He visited her again in 1616 following his dismissal from his post as Chief Justice of the King's Bench.Шаблон:Sfn In 1622 he was imprisoned in the Tower of London and Anne was given leave to visit him as she was seen as a good influence on him.Шаблон:Sfn

Ralph Sadleir died on 12 February 1661 and was buried in the parish church at Standon.Шаблон:Sfn On his death the male line of the Sadleir family came to an end and the Standon estate passed to her "adopted deare son", Walter Aston (1609 – 1678) of Tixall, Staffordshire, son of Walter Aston, 1st Lord Aston of Forfar (1584–1639) and her late husband's sister, Gertrude.Шаблон:SfnШаблон:SfnШаблон:Sfn Anne continued to live at Standon for the rest of her life.Шаблон:Sfn On 16 April 1661 Walter wrote to console his "most deare mother":Шаблон:Sfn

"Pray be merry, itt is the best Physick, and I trust in God I shall many and many a time be merry with you at Standon; and if at any time my presence shall be necessary lett me but receave the least notice of itt, and itt shall he obeyed, for I can bee with you in three days. My wife and all myne present desire their duty."

Sadleir owned a large number of books as well as illuminated manuscripts, coins and curiosities.Шаблон:Sfn Several volumes of Sadleir's personal papers are held in the library of Trinity College, Cambridge, including religious and autobiographical meditations (MS R.13.74) and letters from leading Anglican divines and other correspondents (MS R.5.5). She was a royalist and a fervent adherent of the Church of England; she continued to use the prayer book despite its proscription during the English Civil War and engaged in "vigorous epistolary disputes" with her Roman Catholic nephew, Herbert Aston,[1] and the New England puritan divine Roger Williams.Шаблон:SfnШаблон:Sfn She made substantial bequests to the libraries at Trinity College, Cambridge, and the Inner Temple, institutions attended by her father and by other members of her family.Шаблон:Sfn

Anne Sadleir made her will on 18 May 1670.Шаблон:Sfn She died in late 1671 or early 1672 and was buried in St. Mary's Church, Standon.Шаблон:Sfn[5] There are magnificent tombs, with effigies, for her late husband's father and grandfather in the chancel, while for his wife there is only "a modest tablet" of black and white marble on the wall of the vestry with the following inscription:Шаблон:SfnШаблон:Sfn

"Here lieth the body of Anne Coke, eldest daughter of Sir Edward Coke, Knight, Lord Chief Justice of the Common Pleas, by his first and best wife Bridget Paston, daughter and heir of John Paston, of Norfolk, Esq. At the age of fifteen she was married, in 1601, to Ralph Sadleir, of Standon, in Hertfordshire. She lived his wife 59 years and odd months. She survived him, and here lies in assured hope of a joyful resurrection".

Popular culture

Anne Sadleir was the inspiration behind M. R. James's ghost story "The Uncommon Prayer Book". M. R. James will have come across her papers, with their many virulent references to Oliver Cromwell, when he catalogued the manuscripts of Trinity College Cambridge.Шаблон:Sfn
