From that time the Carmelite was called upon to watch over the child King, and as Henry grew in intelligence he became his first spiritual guide and instructor and, in time, his first Confessor and Monitor. Netter went over to France in 1430 with the little King, but died at Rouen on 6th November of that year, being buried at the Carmelite Church in that city.
On 6th November 1429, when Henry was not yet nine years old, he was crowned at Westminster with due solemnity. The Earl of Warwick led him to the "high scaffold set up in the Abbey Church," where he sat "beholding the people all about sadly and wisely," and showing "humility and devotion." After this the Council declared the Protectorate at an end, and ordered that the young King should now visit his French dominions. So, after spending the Easter at Canterbury, conducted by Cardinal Beaufort he crossed over to Calais. His first act on landing at ten o'clock in the morning was to ride on horseback to attend High Mass at St. Nicholas' Church. On 16th December of this year, 1430, Henry was crowned King of France and returned to England in February
