His Son Henry, 1whom he joined with him in his Kingdom, and at his Coronation served him as a Steward, and set the first dish at the Table, renouncing the name of King, the Archbishop of York sitting at the right hand of the young King, he told him, he might greatly rejoice, being no King had such an Officer as he had, the young King disdaining his words, said; My Father is not dishonoured, for I am a King and a Queens Son, and so is not he. He took Arms with the French King against his Father, and persecuted him, but after he had reigned a few years, died in his youth by the just judgement of God.
