Excerpt from Documents Illustrating Early Education in Worcester: 685 to 1700It will be observed that nothing is said in all this as to monks. Clerks only are contemplated. The monks were sup posed to be immured in their Cloister, and living according to the then recent Benedictine rule, which excluded them from all contact with the world, from serving churches or care for the people, whereas a bishop's clerks, with whom and through whom he con ducted the business of his see, necessarily moved about in the world as the bishop himself did. Some of them were even married, as remained the not' uncommon custom among the English, and among the Norman clergy as well. As the Italian, until the middle of the twelfth century. Pope Gregory himself was the great grandson of a married Pope.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
