In my humble opinion, the major difference is that Henry VIII did not take an Oath regarding the Church of England as an established church -- it did not then exist -- and so Henry's oath refers to the Catholic Church.
Despite the arcane language, the rest of his oath appears similar to that of monarchs following him: for example -- there is an oath to uphold the customary laws of the kingdom etc.--
