William II. and Mary, there are
three series of kings completed--eight Henrys, six Edwards, and three
Richards. Making the three Richards _reference_ points we can easily fix
the residue of the eighteen kings for we see that Richard I. or the
_First_, is preceded by Henry II. and followed by Henry III., with the
_first_ and only John as the _second_ single intermediary [In.] and that
Richard II. is preceded by Edward I., Edward II., and Edward III., or
three Edwards, and followed by Henry IV., Henry V., and Henry VI., or
three Henrys, and that Richard III. is preceded by Edward IV. and Edward
V., or two Edwards, and followed by Henry VII. and Henry VIII., or two
Henrys.

Recalling the succession from William I. to Edward VI., we have William
I., William II., Henry I., Stephen, Henry II., Richard I., John, Henry
III., Edward I., Edward II., Edward III., Richard II., Henry IV., Henry
V., Henry VI., Edward IV., Edward V., Richard III., Henry VII., Henry
VIII., Edward VI. Reversing the order, we have Edward VI., Henry VIII.,
Henry VII., Richard III., Edward V., Edward IV., Henry VI., Henry V.,
Henry IV., Richard II., Edward III., Edward II., Edward I., Henry III.,
John, Richard I., Henry II., Stephen, Henry I., William II., and William
I.
