Did you know what happened to Henry's six wives?
Henry VIII that is. He is infamous for his dealings with his six wives. It can be rather confusing, what with the two Annes and all the Catherines. We learned a great little mnemonic poem today to help remember what happened to Henry's wives. Divorced, beheaded, died, divorced, beheaded, survived. Now the trick is remembering just what happened to whom.
1. Catherine of Aragon
2. Anne Bolyn
3. Jane Seymour
4. Anne of Cleves
5. Catherine Howard
6. Catherine Parr
