king's expectations, Gerard was rewarded for his services with the see of See also:Hereford (I0g6). On the See also:death of Rufus he at once declared for Henry I., by whom he was nominated to the see of York. He made difficulties when required to give Anselm the usual profession of obedience; and it was perhaps to assert the importance of his see that he took the king's See also:side on the question of investitures. He pleaded Henry's cause at See also:Rome with See also:great ability, and claimed that he had obtained a promise, on the See also:pope's See also:part, to condone the existing practice of See also:lay See also:investiture. But this statement was contradicted by See also:Paschal, and Gerard incurred the suspicion of See also:perjury. About 1103 he wrote or inspired a See also:series of tracts which defended the king's See also:prerogative and attacked the See also:oecumenical pretensions of the papacy with great freedom of See also:language. He changed sides in 1105, becoming a stanch friend and sup-See also:porter of Anselm. Gerard was a See also:man of considerable learning and ability; but the chroniclers accuse of being lax in his morals, an astrologer and a worshipper of the See also:devil.
