35、 believed that the king would abide by his oath to uphold the charter.John could break a solemn oath without a second thought.The barons feared that John would disregard the charter as soon as he could do so safely.The king proved to be just as faithless as everyone suspected he would be.He wanted n
36、o part of the charter and called on his ally Pope Innocent for help.Innocent took Johns side,and in August 1215 the pope nullified the charter,freeing John from all its provisions.That was the final straw for the barons.Although some,including Marshal,remained loyal to the crown,a large group of the
37、m,led by Fitzwalter,launched a civil war.They invited Philips son,Prince Louis of France,to join the fight.They intended to put Louis on the English throne once they were victorious.Louis raised an army and invaded England.In 1216,there were completely unexpected developments.Pope Innocent died in J
38、uly from a fever.In October,John also died,felled by the illness dysentery while confronting Louiss forces.The Great Charter Level Z116Johns nine-year-old son,Henry III,then became king.Marshal,now aged seventy,became regentadministrator of the governmentas Henry was still too young to manage affair
39、s on his own.As regent,Marshal advised Henry to reissue the charter and prove to the barons that he was not like his father.AftermathMarshal once again proved his worth to the English throne.In 1217,he brought the rebel barons to heel and ejected Prince Louis from England.Henry reissued the Great Ch
40、arter,pacifying the barons who had doubted that his reign would differ much from Johns.They trusted Marshals word that the king would abide by the charter.Henry turned eighteen in 1225.That year,he again reissued the Great Charter,thereby reinforcing his pledge to be a law-abiding ruler.Henry accept
41、ed that no one was above the lawnot even the king of England.The charter was reissued one more time,in 1297,during the reign of Henrys son,King Edward I.In many paintings Henry III looks just like his father,John I.5The Barons In medieval England,a baron was any noble who had received land from a su

43、ly what happened.John turned out to be a terrible king in almost every way.He angered the barons,not only through heavy taxation but also by taking their property.To protect himself from rebellion,John took many prisoners from noble families,who had to pay to get their relatives released.However,Joh
