KINGS QUEENS AND NICKNAMES QUIZ

[Fairlight]

Out of 40 questions, I have one partly answered and one I can`t find the answer to.

1) His only 2 legitimate sons were drowned (3-4) . . KING HENRY I---BEACLERC ??? (I think this is the answer but can`t find the three other words

2) Delayed his coronation for 14 years, then died 2 years later (3-3) . .

I`ve searched and searched for this one, to no avail

Any help would be appreciated, thank you :0

Thank you very much for your answers ubasses and bookbinder :)

No. 2 answered by sir.prize, Thank you for your answer and for the 3.3. I`m going to put `Edgar the Peaceable -- King of England :)

Ahh the 3-3 is words - not letters. I get it now.

Incidentally, he's more commonly referred to as Edgar the Peaceful (rather than Peaceable).

Good luck
