On This Day In Royal History . 28th January 1547 . King Henry VIII died . . ⬛ Henry’s obesity hastened his death at the age of 55, which occurred on 28 January 1547 in the Palace of Whitehall, on what would have been his father’s 90th birthday (King Henry VII). . ◼ He allegedly uttered his last words: “Monks! Monks! Monks!” perhaps in reference to the monks he caused to be evicted during the Dissolution of the Monasteries. . ◼ On 14 February 1547 Henry’s coffin lay overnight at Syon Monastery, en route for burial in St George’s Chapel, Windsor. . ◼ Twelve years before in 1535 a Franciscan friar named William Peyto (or Peto, Petow), (d.1558 or 1559), had preached before the King at Greenwich Palace “that God’s judgements were ready to fall upon his head & that dogs would lick his blood, as they had done to Ahab”, whose infamy rests upon 1 Kings 16:33: “And Ahab did more to provoke the Lord God of Israel to anger than all the kings of Israel that were before him”. . ◼ The prophecy was said to have been fulfilled during this night at Syon, when some “corrupted matter of a bloody colour” fell from the coffin to the floor. Henry VIII was interred in St George’s Chapel in Windsor Castle, next to Jane Seymour. Over a hundred years later, King Charles I (1625–1649) was buried in the same vault. . . . #OnThisDayInHistory #ThisDayinHistory #TheYear1547 #HenryVIII #HenryVIIIofEngland #KingHenryVIII #HouseofTudor #TudorDynasty #TheTudors #Monarchy #KingofEngland #EnglishMonarchy #History #Heritage #England #D28Jan #BritishMonarchy #RoyalHistory #OnThisDay #TudorHistory #Tudors #Tudor #royalfamily Royal Collection Trust/© Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II 2020 .
