The Theme this week was....Henry VIII

2)The Print is of the Vatican. Bluff Hal Broke with Rome and the catholic faith and created the Church of England.
3)Leviticus cuff-- Henry was said to quote Leviticus often when trying to get others to side with him that he needed to get a divorce from his 1st wife.
4)The Pomegrante--This fruit was Katherine of Aragons totem.
5)The Conscience Print-- Henry often had a Case of having to appease his Conscience anytime things were not going his way.
6)The Lute-- Henry was a Musician and played the Lute as well as many other instruments.

*Interesting note
of Henrys 6 Wives only 2 to be Beheaded were cousins.
**While Henry DID break from Rome to create the Church of England he still practiced very much like a the Catholic. It does appear to many that he did not wish to stop being Catholic.. he merely wanted to have his way.

Thanks to ALL that played last week. This weeks game will be posted Tomorrow.
