The same in Latin. “✠ Eádwardus rex Haroldo comiti, Ailnodo abbati, Godwino, et omnibus ballivis suis Sumersetac, salutem! Significamus vobis nos velle quod episcopus Giso episcopatum apud vos possideat cum omnibus dictum episcopatum in villis et extra de iure contingentibus, cum saca et socna, adeo plene et libere per omnia sicut ullus episcoporum praedecessorum suorum unquam habebat. Rogamus etiam vos ut coadiutores ipsius esse velitis ad fidem praedicandam et Christianitatem sustinendam pro loco et tempore, sicut de vobis fideliter confidimus vos velle id ipsum. Et si quid de dicto episcopatu sive in terris sive in aliis rebus contra iustitiam fuerit sublatum, adiuvetis eum pro amore nostro ad restitutionem, prout iustum fuerit habendam. Conservet vos Dominus.” Cod. Dipl. No. 838. ----- The metropolitans themselves were to receive consecration from one another, in order that the expense and trouble of going to Rome might be avoided: but during the abeyance of the archiepiscopate of York, the prelate elect of Canterbury appears to have been sometimes consecrated in Gaul, sometimes by a conclave of suffragan bishops at home: thus in 731 Tátwine was consecrated at Canterbury by Daniel, Ingwald, Aldwine and Aldwulf, the respective bishops of Winchester, London, Worcester and Rochester[872]; and Pope Gregory the Third either made or acknowledged this consecration to be valid by the transmission of a pall in 733. We have no evidence by whom the consecrations were performed, in many cases, but it is probable that the old rule was adhered to as much as possible. In 1020, Æðelnóð was consecrated to Canterbury by archbishop Wulfstán: the ceremony took place at Canterbury on the 13th of November[873] in that year: and since in many cases the ordination of archbishops is mentioned without any details, but yet as preliminary to their going to Rome for their palls, it is likely that the chroniclers tacitly assumed the custom of reciprocal functions in Canterbury and York to be too well known to require description. ----- Footnote 872: Flor.
