This yeare also in the moneth of Nouember, as Matthew Paris saith,
Johannes de Anagnia a cardinall and legat from the pope arriued here in
England, comming on land at Douer, and bicause the king was as then in
the north parts, the same cardinall was prohibited on the behalfe of the
kings mother quéene Elianor, to passe any further without the kings
commandement. And so he staied there thirtéene daies at the charges of
the archbishop of Canturburie, till the king came to those parties, by
whose wisedome a direction was taken for the quieting of the
controuersie betwixt the archbishop, and the moonkes of Canturburie, for
the chappell church of Hakington now called S. Stephans.
[Sidenote: _R. Houed._] In the same moneth of Nouember, by the kings
appointment, Geffrey the elect of Yorke, who was the kings brother, with
other barons and lords of Yorkeshire, [Sidenote: William king of Scots.]
receiued William king of Scotland at the water of Tweed, and from thence
with all due reuerence and honour they brought him vnto Canturburie,
[Sidenote: A councell called at Canturburie. _Polydor._ An oth. _Matth.
Paris._] where the king had called a councell of the lords of his realme
both spirituall and temporall, in the which euerie of them tooke an oth
to be true to the king, and to continue in due obedience vnder him and
his lawes, which oth also the king of Scots receiued, being there
present, and likewise king Richards brethren earle John and Geffrey the
archbishop of Yorke.
[Sidenote: _Matth. Paris._ _Polydor._] The king of Scots therefore
hauing receiued this oth, and thinking the time to serue his purpose for
redéeming of those castels, which were deliuered to king Henrie as gages
for his ransome, paid now vnto king Richard ten thousand markes,
[Sidenote: Restitution made to the K. of Scots. _Wil. Paruus._] and had
restitution for the same, that is of Berwike, Roxburgh, Sterling, and
Edenburgh. But William Paruus saieth, that Edenburgh was restored to him
in the daies of king Henrie, by reason of his wife which he tooke in the
parties beyond the seas: and herewith agréeth the Scotish chronicle.
King Richard also assigned to queene Elianor his mother, the accustomed
dower, with manie lordships and honours beside, as an augmentation
thereof. [Sidenote: _Rog. Houed._] About which time died William de
Mandeuille earle of Albemarle at Rouen, and Hugh de Putsey the nephue of
the bishop of Durham died at Aclet, and was buried at Durham. [Sidenote:
_N. Triuet._] Also Formalis archbishop of Trier died at Northampton, and
was there buried in the church of S. Andrews.
