PRINTED IN GREAT BRITAIN BY RICHARD CLAY & SONS, LIMITED, BUNGAY, SUFFOLK. FOOTNOTES: [1] R. Diceto, ii. 67, and Rog. Wendover (ed. Coxe), iii. 3. Both the prophet and his commentator ignore the fact that what they call Eleanor’s “third nesting” was really her sixth, as she had already had, besides her two elder sons, two daughters by her first marriage and one by her second. [2] Rog. Howden, iii. 215. [3] _Chron. Anon._ in _Rer. Gall. Scriptt._ xii. 121. She had joined him before the end of August; _Chron. de Bello_, 76. [4] R. Torigni, a. 1157; Pipe Roll 3 Hen. II, 107. [5] R. Torigni, a. 1157. [6] W. Newburgh, lib. ii. c. 4. [7] Place from R. Diceto, i. 302; day from _Chron. S. Albini Andeg._, a. 1157. [8] “MS. in Lord Arundel’s collection,” as quoted by James, Collections, vii. 34 (Bodl.); Stubbs, preface to R. Howden, iii., xviii. note 2. [9] In 1220 Henry III granted to another person “septem libratas redditûs in Chippenham quas Hodierna nutrix domini Regis Ricardi avunculi nostri habuit,” _Close Rolls_, ii. 416 b. That the grant to Hodierna was made by Richard may be inferred from there being no trace of the payment in the Pipe Rolls of his father’s reign. Stubbs notes that “this could not have been the whole of her property, for her land in 30 Hen. III” [1246-7], “was talliaged at 40_s._”; also that “the parish of Knoyle Hodierne in Wiltshire still preserves her name.” Pref. to R. Howd. iii., xviii. note 2. [10] R. Diceto, i. 293. [11] See especially _Chron. S. Maxent._, a. 1060 and 1110, and _Hist. Pont. et Com. Engolism._, Labbe, _Thesaurus_, ii. 268 (a. 1070-1101). [12] Geoffrey of Vigeois, Labbe, _Thes._, ii. 304. This was in 1136-7. M. Richard (_Comtes de Poitou_, ii. 51) thinks Emma was only betrothed, not married, to the duke. His arguments are not strong enough to convince me against the distinct statement of Geoffrey of Vigeois. [13] “Lemovicæ comes” (_sic_) “habet feudum de abbate S. Martialis castellum de Petra Buffiera et turrim de castello quod est super Charnix, Lemovicense castrum, vicariam de turre, Bernardii castellum de Cambono S. Valeriæ. Pro his omnibus debent hominium facere abbatibus cunctis omnes vicecomites qui feudum istud tenuerunt”—Geoffrey, the writer, had twice seen it performed—“... Abbas tamen dominium totius castri Lemovicini habere debet, vicecomes vicariam tantum.... Burgenses vero argenti pondere fulti vicecomiti vix obtemperant, quando minus monachis” Geoff. Vigeois, 333. For the significance of “castrum Lemovicense,” see the next footnote.
