In the same year, the before-named Yivianus, cardinal priest, titular of Saint Stephen de Monte Celi, and legate of the Apostolic See, was in the Isle of Man, with king Guthred, on the day of the Nativity of our Lord. After the Epiphany, he passed over into Ireland, and, landing at Dun86 in Ulster, while he was walking along the sea-shore towards Lublin, he met the troops of John de Courey, who seized him and made him prisoner ; but John de Courey set him at liberty and suffered him to depart.
