Katerine Par, the sixth wife of King Henry VII, wrote lamentation of a sinner in 1547. Her text covered the themes of repentance and confession but also went into the state of religious politics at the time. 

The most interesting part of her book, however, was that she published it under her own name, granting royal authority to her work. It also in this repect, due to the use of first-person and first handed accounts, acts as an autobiography of sorts for the queen.
