thread_title:  New file [[:File:Henry, Prince of Wales by Marcus Gheeraerts the Younger.jpg]] 

message: I came across information about sermons and prose works published in connection with the prince's death and knew of a source (The Concise Oxford Chronology of English Literature) that had information on seven poems published about the death, so I added all that into a new section on literature. 
It's a bit long in relation to the whole article, but I think it's actually not too much WP:WEIGHT to apply. The subject's influence on the wider world (aside from making way for his younger brother to ascend the throne) likely was greatest in his death. The poems were by some prominent poets of that time. The quotes from the sermons seem to be worth adding, but they could be cut back, and perhaps some quotes from the poems could be added. 
There likely are passages in biographies of Charles I and in history books speculating on how history might have changed if Henry hadn't died. Adding that would be extremely valuable. -- Reconsideration (talk) 22:23, 19 July 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: New section on "Literature occasioned by the prince's death" 

message: Is it worth mentioning the lament Weepe forth your Teares by John Ward (composer) (1571 – 1638)? It's a choral (SSATTB) work mourning the fact that "Death hath slaine/ Prince Henery", and there aren't any other likely mournable Prince Henrys in the period in which Ward was composing. The score is contained in Noah Greenberg's anthology An English Medieval and Renaissance Song Book: Part Songs and Sacred Music for One to Six Voices from Dover Publications Inc. (September 2000, ISBN-13: 978-0486413747) --Kay Dekker (talk) 21:36, 6 December 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Music about Henry Frederick 

message: If you enlarge the image of Henry Fredrick with his hand on his sword you will notice that he has one foot solidly on a shield with three feathers and the words "ich dien".  I looked up this phrase(which is German for "I serve") and found that it is a historical motto for the Prince of Wales and that the three feathers are also Wales related.   This puzzles me for the obvious reason that Henry Frederick WAS the Prince of Wales.  I wonder what the story is behind this?

thread_title:  "ich dien" Question. 

message: In the wiki of Charles I it says that brother Henry Frederick died of "typhoid, or possibly porphyria." This wiki sight mentions nothing of porphyria as cause of death.  I looked into what porphyria is and if I'm not mistaken it seems that it would be pretty obvious if one suffered and died from it. What evidence is there about his illness and subsequent death? Was porphyria known about in that time and place, was it taboo, was it covered up and said to be typhoid, or is it just historians looking too hard for something 'more interesting'?
