Orleans, whose right to the succession was supposed to be secured by Philip's See also:solemn renunciation of all claim to the See also:French throne, when he became king of Spain. It was in pursuit of one of these intrigues that he abdicated in 1724 in favour of his son Louis. But Louis died in a few months, and Philip returned to the throne. At a later See also:period he tried to abdicate again, and his wife had to keep him in a See also:species of disguised confinement. Throughout his life, but particularly in the later See also:part of it, he was subject to prolonged fits of See also:melancholia, during which he would not even speak. He died of See also:apoplexy on the 9th of See also:July 1746.
The best See also:account of Philip's See also:character and reign is still that given by See also:Coxe in his See also:Memoirs of the See also:Kings of Spain of the House of Bourbon (See also:London, 1815).
