Potted Bios of Three English Kings Named William

Potted Bios of William the Conqueror, William Rufus and William the Fourth First a quick word on Robert the Devil, whose turbulent  life turned out quite a revel. He fathered a child on a poor tanner's daughter then dashed to repent in Jerusalem's quarter, but on his return, sad to say, he died, yet he set up his son, his only pride. Though being dubbed "bastard" earned him rebuke Son William became a very tough duke, as shown by the fact he became England's king on Christmas Day when the church bells did ring. Poor England he ruled with a grim  iron rod. He harried the North like a merciless god. To gauge England's wealth great pains he took, which to prove I name the Doomsday Book. Once  his horse took fright  in a fiery melee and part of his saddle punctured his belly. After this mishap he did not live long. When his belly burst, oh what a pong! The monks in Rouen cut his funeral short, when  incense galore  no remedy brought. Then his son William Rufus ascended the throne. To wild fits and frenzy this redhead was prone. He found city life somewhat too narrow. Out riding one day, he was struck by an arrow. William the Fourth died in his bed, which somehow fitted the life he had led. He had multiple children but not with his wife. Exemplary no way  was King William's life.
