when they sent to Rome to obtain the pallium ; at which the pope was exceedingly confused, and forbade such a thing being done again. He also commanded the before-mentioned bishops, in the same letter, to take care that before he returned to England, all the dues which belonged to the Catholic Church, such as aims for ploughs, and the small tithes from the food of animals, and the first fruits from the seed of gardens, which in English is called Ci)trtf)Cdcor, and the tidies of the sheaves of corn, and also the pence due to Saint Peter, which in English is called Stamele*, were duly paid.
