The king bowed before the See also:storm, dismissed the foreign counsellors, made See also:peace with Marshal's adherents, and was publicly reconciled with the barons. But the new ministers were as unpopular as the old; nor was the archbishop allowed that See also:political See also:influence which he claimed in virtue of his See also:- OFFICE (from Lat. officium, " duty," " service," a shortened form of opifacium, from facere, " to do," and either the stem of opes, " wealth," " aid," or opus, " work ")
office. It was with the See also:object of emancipating himself from Edmund's See also:control that the king asked the pope to send him a See also:legate (1236). On the arrival of See also:Cardinal See also:Otho (1237) the See also:arch-bishop found himself thwarted and insulted at every point. The See also:marriage between See also:Simon de See also:Montfort and the Princess Eleanor, which' Edmund had pronounced invalid, was ratified at See also:Rome upon See also:appeal. The king and legate upheld the monks of Canterbury in their opposition to the archbishop's authority. On all public occasions the legate took See also:precedence of the arch-bishop. By the advice of his suffragans Edmund laid a protest before the king, and excommunicated in general terms all who had infringed the liberties of Canterbury. These See also:measures led to no result; nor could the pope be moved to See also:reverse the legate's decisions. Edmund complained that the discipline of the See also:national See also:- CHURCH

church was ruined by this conflict of See also:powers, and began to meditate retiring. He was confirmed in this intention by the papal encroachments of the See also:year 1240, when the See also:English See also:clergy were required to pay a See also:subsidy of a fifth for the See also:war against See also:Frederick II., and simultaneously three See also:hundred See also:Romans were " provided " with English benefices in return for their political services to the See also:Holy See. Edmund withdrew to Pontigny in the summer of 1240. A little later the See also:state of his See also:health compelled him to seek the cooler See also:air of Soissy (near See also:Provins). Here he died on the 16th of See also:November 1240.
His See also:canonization was at once demanded by his admirers, and only delayed (till 1247) through the opposition of Henry III. The See also:honour was well deserved. He is one of the most saintly and attractive figures in the See also:history of the English church. It was his misfortune to be placed at the See also:head of the national See also:hierarchy in a crisis for which he had not been prepared by See also:practical training or experience. As archbishop he showed no See also:great capacity or force of See also:character; but the purity of his motives and the loftiness of his deals commanded universal respect.
