In 1687 he was ordained See also:deacon, and in 1688 he made the acquaintance of the See also:archbishop of See also:Canterbury, William See also:Sancroft, under whose generous patronage some of his literary work was done. The See also:arch-See also:bishop, who had a very high See also:opinion of Wharton's See also:character and talents, made him one of his chaplains, and presented him to the Kentish living of Sundridge, and afterwards to that of Chartham in the same See also:county.

Wharton's most valuable work is his Anglia sacra, a collection of the lives of English archbishops and bishops, which was published in two volumes in 1691. Some of these were written by Wharton himself; others were borrowed from See also:early writers. His other writings include, in addition to his criticism of the History of the Reformation, A See also:treatise of the See also:celibacy of the See also:clergy (1688); The See also:enthusiasm of the Church of See also:Rome demonstrated in some observations upon the See also:life of See also:Ignatius See also:Loyola (1688) ; and A See also:defence of pluralities (1692, new ed. 1703). In the See also:Lambeth Library there are sixteen volumes of Wharton's See also:manuscripts. Describing him as " this wonderful See also:man," See also:Stubbs says that Wharton did for the elucidation of English Church history " more than any one before or since." A life of Wharton is included in See also:George D'Oyly's Life of W. Sancroft (1821).
