320 REIGN OF HENBY IV. CHAP. XVI II. Archbishop Arundel, Chancellor the fiah time. Illness of Henry IV. Character of Chan- cellors of Henry IV. stituted guardian of the person of his infant successor, then crowned King of France as well as of England. Although he comes in the list of Chancellors, he had little to do with the duties of the office or the profession of the law, and I should not be justified in narrating his campaigns or entering more circumstantially into his history. He died at G...reenwich in 1425, without issue, leaving his immense wealth to his royal ward. We have no certain explanation of the reason why he ceased to be Chancellor any more than why he was first appointed. Henry, though now only forty-five years of age, had fallen into a mortal distemper, and felt serious compunction for the manner in which he had acquired the Crown, as well as for some of his* acts in the exercise of his royal authority. Per- haps, as his strength declined, he wished to have a spiritual " keeper of his conscience*' who had been his chief councillor and accomplice, and who might be expected to be a lenient and absolving confessor.
