He likewise took from them several mannours, such as TintanhuU and Lodaresburgh ; upon the latter whereof was afterwards built the Priory of Montacute. He quartered souldiers upon them ; and being jealous of his new subjects, he, between Easter and Whitsontide after he came to the crown, carried over into Normandy with him the principal men of the nation, amongst which was Egelnoth, at that time abbat of this monastery ; whom he awhile after deposed, placing one Turstine, a Cluniack monk of Cae...n in Normandy, in his room.
41. This Turstine being a weak, but withal a busy, prodigal person, shamefully wasted the revenues of the Abbey, and altered several of the ancient statutes and customs of the house.
Amongst other things he compelled his monks to lay aside the old Gregorian song, used in that Monastery time out of mind, and imposed upon them a new sort of church song, invented by one William Fiscamp, a Norman. , He pincht themi in their diet ; and, in a word, so tyrannized over the poor mcfnks, that they refused to submit to many of his innovations.
