Henry VIII's "nocturnal emissions" on the bed sheet...?

Question

Was the king admitting to having wet dreams, or to masturbating because his 4th wife would not sleep with him?

Answer 1

none of those, he peed the bed

Answer 2

His fourth wife was Anne Cleves who was so ugly she "rendered him impotent" - so perhaps he was fantasing about the nubile, 18 year old Catherine Howard who he rather swiftly made his fifth wife.

Answer 3

he was admitting to wet dreams.  he told people this to show that even tho he claimed to be unable to perform with anne of cleves he was not impotent and would be able to do the deed with someone else!!!!
