 Amid the <unk> of the Dudley family 's possessions in July 1553 , Mary had allowed Jane Dudley to retain her wardrobe and plate , carpets , and other household <unk> , as well as the use of the Duke 's house in Chelsea , London . There , she died on either 15 or 22 January 1555 , and was buried on 1 February at Chelsea Old Church . In her will she tried to provide for her sons financially and thanked the Queen , as well as the many Spanish nobles she had lobbied . The Duchess of <unk> was to receive her green parrot ; to Don Diego de <unk> she gave " the new bed of green velvet with all the furniture to it ; <unk> him even as he hath in my lifetime showed himself like a father and a brother to my sons , so shall [ I ] require him no less to do now their mother is gone " . She also remembered " my lord , my dear husband " , and stipulated : " in no wise let me be opened after I am dead . ... I have not lived to be very bold before women , much more I should be <unk> to come into the hands of any living man , be he <unk> or Surgeon . " She avoided to be specific on religion , but stressed that " who ever <unk> trust to this <unk> world , as I did , may happen to have an overthrow , as I had ; therefore to the worms will I go as I have before written .
