When in 1483 Edward died, his (oldest, eldest) son was to become a king. But (till, before, if) it happened the prince was taken with his younger brother to prison and they were never seen again. Richard became king of England. People (told, spoke, said) that he had murdered his young nephews. Shakespeare's play "Richard III" and many history books show Richard as a cruel king, but he lived in cruel times, and many kings (which, who) are not known as cruel (made, did) the same things.
