hymn being sung, didisque versiculo et oratioiie consuetis in liac 
parte, Thomas Halyborne, mox tunc ibidem, before the clergy 
and people of both sexes solemnly published the election in 
vnlgari. Then Richard Elstede, and the whole convent by their 
proctors and nuncios appointed for the purposes, Thomas Haly- 
borne and John Stepe required several times the assent of the 
elected ; " et tandem post diutinas interpellationes, et delibera- 
tionem providam penes se habitam, in hac parte divine nolens, 
ut asseruit, resistere voluntati," within the limited time he 
signified his acceptance in the usual written form of words. 
The bishop is then supplicated to confirm their election, and 
do the needful, under common seal, in the chapter-house. 
November 14, 1410. 
The bishop, January 6, 1410, apiid Esher in camera inferiori, 
declared the election duly made, and ordered the new prior to 
be inducted — for this the Archdeacon of Winchester was written 
to; " stallumque in choro, et locum in capitulo juxto morem 
preterit! temporis," to be assigned him ; and every thing beside 
necessary to be done.
