KING, EDWARD (18291910)

This article appears in Volume V15, Page 803 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: KHA-KRI
KING, EDWARD (18291910) , English
bishop
 , was the second son of the Rev. Walter King, archdeacon of Rochester and
rector
  of Stone, Kent. Graduating from Oriel College,
Oxford
 , he was ordained in 1854, and four years later became chaplain and lecturer at Cuddesdon Theological College. He was principal at Cuddesdon from 1863 to 1873, when he became regius professor of
pastoral
  theology at
Oxford
  and canon of Christ Church. To the world outside he was only known at this time as one of Dr Pusey's most intimate friends and as a leading member of the English Church Union. But in Oxford, and especially among the younger men, he exercised an exceptional influence, due, not to
special
  profundity of intellect, but to his remarkable charm in personal intercourse, and his abounding sincerity and goodness. In 1885 Dr King was made
bishop
  of Lincoln. The most eventful episode of his episcopate was his prosecution (1888189o)
J. W. Hales, in the
Athenaeum
  for the 1st of August 1891, suggests that in writing King's elegy Milton had in his mind, besides the Idylls of Theocritus, a Latin eclogue of Giovanni Baptista Amalteo entitled Lycidas, in which Lycidas bids farewell to the land he loves and prays for gentle breezes on his voyage. He was familiar with the Italian Latin poets of the Renaissance, and he may also have been influenced in his choice of the name by the shepherd Lycidas in
Sannazaro
 's eclogue Phillis.for ritualistic practices before the archbishop of Canterbury, Dr Benson, and, on appeal, before the judicial committee of the Privy Council (see LINCOLN JUDGMENT). Dr King, who loyally conformed his practices to the archbishop's judgment, devoted himself unsparingly to the
work
  of his diocese; and, irrespective of his High Church views, he won the affection and reverence of all classes by his real saintliness of character. The bishop, who never married, died at Lincoln on the 8th of
March
  1910.
See the obituary notice in The Times,
March
  9, 1910.
