      She died after he did, so yes it was her doing. She was Catholic but he was not. Sr Richard might have converted to Islam during his travels through Arabia.

    I knew instantly that it was Sir Richard and Isabel Burton, a power couple of the era! Not only did he find the source of the Nile (disputed by his rival Speke), but also explored up the Amazon (with Isabel). Translated the Arabian Nights, and wrote amazing works of his own. I never knew you could see inside the tomb! Thanks for sharing that with us!
