"King Henry VIII" by William Shakespeare is a collaborative history play written with John Fletcher around 1613, based on the life of Henry VIII. The drama follows the ruthless Cardinal Wolsey's machinations at court, the King's divorce from Queen Katherine, and his marriage to Anne Bullen.

the dangerous favor of kings. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
