[edit] Holy Orders / Ordination
I have restored the Holy Orders terminology in one part of the discussion on Henry's succession to the bishopric, as it is a technical term that should be used to refer to the Catholic ordination. Simple ordination would not carry the same connotation to some readers, due to the fact that Holy Orders are a sacrament, whereas ordination is not necessarily a sacrament (depending on religious tradition).

[edit] Sheakspire
I have tried to verify the fact about Sheakspire using Henry's story for his Winter's Tale. This search mentions few old books mentioning Winter's Tale and Siemowit III, Henry's father; some further snippet readings indicate that they speak about this event as an inspiration, but it's hard to reference with a series of snippets :( This book mentions that Sheakspire's inspiraction came from a 14th century event that occured on Polish and Bohemian (?) courts. I have asked tha author of that claim (from pl wiki) to provide further sources; it appears to be a true but very rarely mentioned fact.-- Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus | talk 22:06, 27 September 2006 (UTC)
