[post_page_title]King James VI was apparently disgusted by water[/post_page_title]
You know the King James Version of the Bible? It’s named after King James VI of Scotland, who was notorious even for the period for his atrocious hygiene. He’d reportedly wear the same clothes for months at a time, and was actually said to have an aversion to water, so he washed himself as little as possible.
He didn’t even wash his hands before eating, instead rubbing the ends of his fingers with a wet napkin. To top it off, one court lady complained that she and her friends were infested with lice after sharing a room with him.
