He was anx- ious to repress avarice and misconduct in others, but he was himself still addicted to enjoyments, which, in the fullness of time he learned to regard as serious offences against heaven. With much bitter- ness of heart he laments the sinful doings in which he had indulged, and it may be presumed, sadly re- called the share he had had in those scenes of dissi- pation, which had conferred an unenviable celebrity on the youthful days of his royal companion. The eflorts of John of Gaunt... in favour of Wickliffemiijht have commanded his admiration in the rci^n of Edward the Third, but his attention could at that period hardly have been stedfastly fixed on religion, or he wouldnot have been found in the time of Henry the Fourth, in the ranks of dissipation. Eventually, the doctrines of Wickliffe made a profound impres- sion on his mind, and he became an altered man. It was then that he comprehended the vanity of those pleasures, to which, from his youth he had been addicted, and learned to seek for enjoyment of a higher and more enduring character.
