Difference (from prior major revision) (no other diffs)

Changed: 9c9

His elder son Arthur having died in 1502, he was succeeded by his second son, Henry VIII. Henry VII did not want the negotiations that had led to the betrothal of his elder son to Catherine of Aragon to go to waste, so he arranged a dispensation for his younger son to marry his brother's widow -- normally a degree of relationship that precludes marriage in the Roman Catholic Church.
