| 46 Bonifacius. 25 | In the time of this Bonyface, pope Gregorye wickedlye graunted to k. Henry. 3. (for þe getting of þe kingdom of Sicile) whiche belonged not to hym to geue, nor to the other to take,) tenthes of goods temporall and spirituall, for v. yeares. Item, all the first yeares fruites of Churches that should be vacāt for v. yeares. Item, halfe of all the goods of beneficed men not resident at their benefices. Item, all legacies not distinctly geuen. And yet the kindome of Sicile neuer came to his hāds, which belonged to Manfredus, sonne of Frederike Emperour. Strife betwene thys Boniface, & the prior of Cant. Item, betwene him and bishop of Roff. Item, betwene him & the Chapter of Lincolne, all which was after agreed. Chr. Douerens. fol. 20. pag. 2. Strife in Winchester, about chusing the bishop after þe deth of Ayonarus, þe kings brother. Strife in the conuocation which Boniface dyd holde at Lambheth: In the which coūcell were recited the statutes of Octobonus and other new statutes made: Agaynst which I. Hemelingford the kynges chaplaine with other mo, and prince Edward on the kinges behalfe did apeale. Chro. Douer. fo. 21 |
Vnder this Boniface archb. Tunebrege & Hadlo first came vnder the custody of the archb. of Cant. Master Iohn of Exeter bought the byshoprick of Winchester for. 6000. marks: which being knowen, he was fayne to pay the same summe agayn to þe Pope, and so was sent home. Boniface the Archb. being in the partes of Sabaudia, an. 1262. fell an other alteration betwene the Prior and Chapter of Canterbury on the one part, and the Prior and Chapter of Douer on the other part. Which two houses almost were neuer in quiet, and all about certayne liberties and priuilegies: as for makyng the subprior, for receauyng in of monkes, and for visitations of the Church of Douer. An. 1268. Boniface Archb. interdicted the citie of London, because in the same City the Archb. of Yorke did holde vp his crosse, the Archbyshop of Cant. beyng there present, the kyng holdyng thē his Parliament at Westminster. This Archb. died in the partes of Sabandia. | |
Iohn Prior of Canterbury was elected by þe Monkes agaynst the kinges mynd, but by the Pope refused. Adam Chilinden was elect, but he resigned hys election to the Pope. | |
| 47 Robart Kilwarby, Friaer. 6. | In the tyme of this Robart Kilwarby, appeale was taken agaynst the Chapiter of Canterbury by the bishop of Winchester, of Worcester, and Exceter: for the which cause þe sayd bishops went vp to Rome to prosecute þe appeale. The matter was because they dyd not their obedience to the Monkes of Canterbury, the see beyng empty. |
Walter Giffard archb. of Yorke, goyng toward þe generall Coūcell, bare vp his crosse through the middle of Kent in the tyme of this Robert Archbyshop of Canterbury, an. 1272. By Pope Gregory x. in the generall Councel at Lyons, all the orders of Fryers were put down. 4. orders onely except, that is, Dominickes, Franciscans Carmilites, and Augustines. This Robart Kilwarby by the commaundemēt of Pope Nicholas was made Cardynall of Rome, Byshop Poruensis.MarginaliaAn vntruth in Polyd. Virgil. Where is to be noted an vntruth in Polid. Virgill, which sayth that he was made Cardinal by pope Gregory, which could not be. | |
| 48. Iohn Peckham. 13 | Robert Burnell bishop of Bathe was elcted, but by the Pope refused: For whō Iohn Peckham a Gray Frier, was placed by Pope Nicho. In the first yeare of thys Frier Pecckham, Wil. Wikewane Archbishop of Yorke, cōmyng from hys consecration at Rome to Douer, bare vp hys crosse through the middest of Kent, where at was no little adoe. Robert Gernemine archdeacon of Cant. went to law at Rome for the liberties & possessions of hys archdeaconship 2. yeares and there dyed. In his tyme also another wrāgling fell betwen the monkes of Cant. & the monkes of Douer in þe tyme of this I. Peckhā, for admitting certaine Nouices of Douer into orders. Ex chr. Monach. Douer. fol. 42. This Pecckham holding a councell at Lambeth ordeyned dyuers statutes and caused the ordinaunces of the councell of Lyons, and of Boniface Archb. of Cant. his predecessor to be obserued. Great strife and hatred was betwene this Peccham and Thomas byshop of Hereford. Who beynge excommunicated by Peckham, appealed to Rome, & went to the Pope. The pryor and couent of Cāt. made there appeale agaynst this archb. Peckham, that he should not cōsecrate Walter le Schamel new elect byshop of Salesbury, in any other place, except onely in the church of Cant. but by their leaue and licence first obtained. Notwithstāding the archb. nothing regarding their appeale, proceeded in the consecration of the sayd byshop nere to the towne of Readyng. Whereupon, the prior and the conuent ceased not to prosecute their appeale agaynst the Archbishop. Betwene Richard Ferrings archdeacō of Cāt. of the one party, and the Barons of Douer of þe other party, the same yeare fell an other like wrāgling. For that the archdeacon claymed, to visite the Church of Douer. Contrary, the barons affirmed, that none had nor should haue to do there to order or dispose in spirytuall matters, but only the archb. and the prior and conuent of S. Martin. Ex eod. chron. fol. 46. After the death of Willyam Wicwane archb. of Yorke, Ihon de Roma succeeding after hym, and cōming from his consecratiō at Rome to Douer, bare hys crosse through the midle of Kent, contrary to the inhibytion of Ihon Peckham. |
| 48. Robert Winchelsey. 19 | This Rob. which was archb. in þe latter tyme of k. Edward the 1. for certen in displeasure of þe k. cōceaued against him, departed þe realm, & in his banishmēt remained 2. or 3. yeres. And about the beginning of the raign of k. Edw. the 2. was restored again, an. 1309. Ex Chro. Rich. 2. Thus few Archb. of Cant. we find, with whō kings haue not had some quarell or other. The cause betwene the k. and him (sayth myne author) was this, þt the k. accused hym to Pope Clement to disturbe hys realme, and to take part wyth rebels &c. Ex. Chro. S. Albani. This Robert also excommunycated, Walter Byshop of Couent. for holding with the king and Peter Gauerston agaynst the ordinances of the barons. Wherefore, the sayd Byshop appealed to the Pope, agaynst whom the archb. sent Adam Mirimouth MarginaliaThis Adam Mirimonth was compiler of the story of k. Edward. In the time of this Robert Archbyshop, the order of Templaries were abolished by Pope Clemēt v. in the councell of Vienna wyth this sentence diffinitiue.
