GUALO, CARDINAL (fl. 1216), was sent to England by Pope Innocent III. in 1216. He supported John with all the weight of papal authority. After John's death he crowned the infant Henry III., and as representing the pope, Henry's suzerain, he claimed the regency and divided the chief power with William Marshal, earl of Pembroke. He proclaimed a crusade against the French, and, after the peace of Lambeth, forced Louis to make a public profession of penitence (1217). He ruled the church with an absolute hand until he made his departure from England in I218.
