My name is Denise L. Cook, known as The ORACLE. I am a vessel, an Oracle forever after the order of Melchizedek. A wise woman with sage advice. My book, The ORACLE Speaks... just because, is a book of positive, motivational, inspirational poetry, prose and song. The words I write are not my own, they are messages needed to be heard and understood. The words I share bring life to self-love. If music is the universal language of love, and 'harmony is the speech of Havona', then G-d's words are the universal language for life. I love my life, my children, my man and you, all G-d's children. Enjoy your read. Find truth between the lines and enlightenment and understanding in the content.

The day Henry IV could finally declare he had vanquished his enemies, he threw it all away with an infamous deed. No English king had executed an archbishop before. And divine judgment was quick to follow. Many thought he was struck with leprosy—God's greatest punishment for sinners. From that point on, Henry's health was cursed and he fought doggedly on as his body continued to betray him—reducing this once great warrior to an invalid. Fortunately for England, his heir was ready and eager to take over. But Henry wasn't willing to relinquish what he had worked so hard to preserve. No one was going to take away his royal prerogative—not even Prince Hal. But Henry didn't count on Hal's dauntless nature, which threatened to tear the royal family apart.</span></p>
