EOdem Anno distracta sunt horrea Romanorum per totam fere Angliam a viris quibusdam armatis, et adhuc ignotis, bonis conditi∣onibus,* 1.1 et ad commodum multorum. Et opus, licet temerarium, in solennitate Paschali inchoantes, sine contradictione et libere, quod in∣ceperant compleverunt. Largas eleemosynas advenientibus distribu∣ebant egenis, et quandoque nummos inter pauperes seminantes, eos colligere hortabantur. Delituerunt clerici Romani in Abbatiis, de in∣juriis sibi illatis murmurare non audentes: quia elegerunt potius res suas amittere, quam puniri sententia capitali. Erant autem hujus temeritatis auctores viri quasi quater viginti, & quandoque minus, qui magistrum habentes Willielmum quendam cognomento Witham (sive Robertum de Thin∣ge, militem & virum generosum, sed sic palliatum) ejus omnia obtemperabant praeceptis. Sed cum post modicum tempus haec quae facta fuerant, ad summi Ponti∣ficis notitiam pervenerunt, indignatus est valde; & misit literas ad Re∣gem Anglorum mordaces nimis, & increpatorias, quod tales in regno suo fieri permisit rapinas viris Ecclesiasticis: non habens respectum ad sacramenta quae juraverat tempore Coronationis suae, non solum de pace Ecclesiae manutenenda, verum etiam de recta Iustitia tam cle∣ricis quam laicis conservanda. Mandavit igitur in eisdem literis Regi, sub poena excommunicationis et Interdicti firmiter praecipiens; quatenus diligenti facta inquisitione, si quos hujus violentiae inve∣niret auctores, tam graviter puniret obnoxios, ut ex poena illorum caeteris metum incuteret et terrorem. Dedit etiam Petro Wintoniensi Episcopo, & Abbati Sancti Edmundi, per literas in mandatis, ut in Australi parte Angliae, facta inquisitione diligenti, quoscunque hujus rei invenirent culpabiles, tam diu denunciarent eos excommunicatos, quousque Romam venirent a sede Apostolica absolvendi. Similiter in parte regni

Aquilonari, Archiepiscopo Eboracensi, Episcopo Dunelmensi, & Johanni natione Romano & Eboracensi Canonico, idem Papa eadem inquisitione commissa, praecepit, ut illius violentiae transgressores Romam mitterent absol∣vendos, appellatione non obstante. (Such an imperial mandatory power over the King, Bishops and subjects, thus to cite them to Rome, did he then usurp.)
