[81]Dugdale’s _Monasticon Anglicanum_. Ed 1825, vol. v., p. 682. Num. ii. See _Chronica de Kirkstall_. Brit. Mus. Cott. MSS. Domitian. A. xii., ff. 85, 86. The cause of John’s enmity against the Cistercian Order may be gathered from Ralph Coggeshale, _Chronicon Anglicanum_, as before in Bouquet, _Recueil des Historiens des Gaules et de la France_, tom. xviii. pp. 90, 91. [82]_Carta Fundationis per Regem Johannem_, given in Dugdale (Ed. 1825, vol. v. p. 683); and _Confirmacio Regis Edwardi tertii super cartas Regis Johannis_, Brit. Mus., Bib. Cott. Nero, A. xii., No. v., ff. 8-15, quoted in Warner (_South-West Parts of Hampshire_, vol. ii., Appendix, pp. 7-14). There are, however, no less than three dates given for its foundation. The _Annals of Parcolude_, according to Tanner (_Notitia Monastica_, Ed. Nasmyth, Hampshire, No. vi. foot-note _h_), say 1201, which is manifestly wrong; whilst John of Oxnede, better known as the chronicler of St. Benet’s Abbey at Hulme (_Chronica._ Ed. Ellis, p. 107), with the _Chronicon de Hayles et Aberconwey_ (Brit. Mus., Harl. MS., No. 3725, f. 10), and Matthew Paris, according to Dugdale, say respectively 1204 and 1205, though I have not been able to verify the last reference. [83]_Roger of Wendover._ English Historical Society. Ed. Coxe, vol. iii. p. 344. [84]See the previous chapter, pp. 57, 58, foot-note. [85]Curiously enough, as Warner remarks (vol. i. 267), Matthew Paris gives two dates for the dedication, the first 1246 (_Hist. Angl._, tom. i. p. 710, Ed. Wats., London, 1640); and the second (p. 770) 1249; not, however, 1250, as Warner says, and who, followed by all later writers, totally misunderstands the passage, which means that, although the abbot spent so large a sum, yet the King would not remit him the fine he had incurred by trespass in the Forest,—“Nec tamen idcirco aliquatenus pepercit rex, quin maximum censum solveret illi pro transgressione quam dicebatur regi fecisse in occupatione Forestæ.” [86]See Matthew Paris, in praise of the Cistercian Order. Same edition as before, tom. i. p. 916. [87]Not Margaret of Anjou, as the common accounts say, who, landing at Weymouth, took refuge at Cerne Abbey. See _Historie of the Arrival of Edward IV. in England_, pp. 22, 23, printed for the Camden Society, 1838; and Hollinshed’s _Chronicles_, vol. iii. p. 685; and _Speed_, B. ix. p. 866. Hall, however (_The Union of the Families of Lancaster and York_, p. 219), with Grafton, in his prose continuation of Hardyng (Ed. Ellis, 1812, p. 457), says it was to Beaulieu that Margaret fled. But they are evidently mistaken, as Speed and Hollinshed, and the explicit and circumstantial narrative of the author of the _Historie_, show.
