When Charles II. was recalled to England in 1660, she paid him a visit with her daughter Henrietta Anna, but soon returned to France, where she con- tinued in retirement at her house in Colombes. She died suddenly, and her remains were bu- ried in the abbey of St. Denis, with the excep- tion of her heart, which was intrusted to the nuns of Ste. Marie de Chaillot. Bossuet deliv- ered a funeral oration in her honor. The pri- vate correspondence of Henrietta and Charles I. during the civil war was published at Lon- don in 1857, edited by Mrs. Green.
