V1:

Divorced, beheaded, died, divorced, beheaded, survived.

The fate of Henry VIII’s wives,

Six ill fated queens of England

Tudor dynasty lies in the balance

V2:

Catherine of Aragon was the infanta of spain

She reigned for 20 years

Conceived six children, only one daughter lived

Her husband abandoned her for a younger woman.

V3:

Anne Boleyn was chased by the king

A mistress she would not be

A queen she was crowned but only for a thousand days

Than her husband had her head cut off

V4:

Jane seymour was the opposite of the first two wives

She finally gave the king the long awaited heir

She died in her childbirth bed

Henry would call her the love of his life.

V4:

Anne of Cleves was chosen for the king

The king did not think her beautiful

She was smart and agreed to go quietly.

She lived the rest of her life as the kings sister.

V5:

Katherine Howard was the cousin of Anne Boleyn

Both ladies that the king couldn’t resist.

Katherine was just a child, she couldn’t control herself

She joined her cousin as a queen who lost her head.

V6:

Catherine Parr was the last of the six wives

She questioned the king on religion and almost lost her head

She was smart and begged the king forgiveness

She survived the king and lived.

C1:

All the wives of Henry VIII have sad stories

Only three had a child to keep them company

All had a cruel husband, that cared more about himself than them

Their legacy lives on forever.
