"Here's a health to the Protestant Minister
And his church without meaning or faith
For the foundation stones of his temple
are the bollix of Henry the Eight"
True, to a certain extent, but the issue is much more complicated than that. Henry VIII remained a catholic until his death, albeit without the Pope. The real protestant reformation in England only began under Edward VI. This was reversed during the brief reign of his sister, Mary I, who took the practice of lighting candles rather to extremes.
