page li note 1 i, 278; this later charge of complicity caused his name to be inserted earlier in one of the MSS. among the adherents of the young Henry (Benedict, , i, 51, n. 4Google Scholar). Hoveden (Chronica (Rolls Series), ii, 260Google Scholar) cuts Benedict's narrative to omit mention of Arnulf's complicity.

The jurors of the famous inquest of 1205 regarding royal rights at Lisieux and elsewhere, said inter alia, ‘Item diximus per sacramentum nostrum, quod vidimus Henricum et Richardum quondam Reges Angliae tenentes placitum spatae in civitate, et banleua Lexovji, postquam Arnulfus Lexoviensis Episcopus recessit a Normania exul hac de causa. (Pommeraye, F., Sanctae Rotomagensis Ecclesiae Concilia ac Synodalia Decreta (Rouen, 1677), pp. 194Google Scholarseqq.) See also Round, Calendar, pp. 476Google Scholarseqq. This certainly was the occasion of Arnulf's departure; but it seems rash to assume, as Deshays and de Formeville (op. cit. (supra p. xiii), i, dxlviij and ii, 67), that the question of jurisdiction was of long standing and the sole substance of the quarrel between Arnulf and the king. For the bishop of Lisieux's secular jurisdiction, see de Formeville, op. cit., i, dxliv seqq.

page lix note 1 Arnulf says in 1181 (below, pp. 212 and 213) that the canons have lately possessed the church for two or three years, and that their predecessors possessed it from ancient times. It is very unusual for a monastery to lose its patronage; but Gace is in the area where the boundaries between the dioceses of Lisieux and Séez were often in dispute, and it is possible that the church may once have been in the diocese of Séez, and may have been alienated by St. Victor when Séez was colonized from the Paris house.

page lix note 3 Benedict (i, 278) says that Arnulf had deserted his bishopric before his resignation, and it is significant that Henry and Arnulf should have had their final interview at Gisors, on the Norman-French boundary.
page lix note 4 See below, pp. 213, 214 and 215. Henry was at Gisors at least three times during his stay in Normandy, in June and September 1180, and c. July 1181 (Eyton). Both Benedict (i, 278) and Torigni (p. 298) give the resignation under 1181, and Torigni says that Arnulf ruled for forty years. The last date is therefore preferable.
