I just saw this at the English Culture site. Quite
entertaining as well as "Eddie"-fying.

Mnemonic Poem
A rhyme to help you with your history lessons


This is a traditional aid used in English schools to help students remember the order of the Monarchs of England and Great Britain from William the Conqueror on to the present day:

Willie Willie Harry Stee
Harry Dick John Harry three;
One two three Neds, Richard two
Harrys four five six....then who?
Edwards four five, Dick the bad,
Harrys (twain), Ned six (the lad);
Mary, Bessie, James you ken,
Then Charlie, Charlie, James again...
Will and Mary, Anna Gloria,
Georges four, Will four Victoria;
Edward seven next, and then
Came George the fifth in nineteen ten;
Ned the eighth soon abdicated
Then George six was coronated;
After which Elizabeth
And that's all folks until her death.
