184 History of Saint Norbert The Clunyite : ' * St. Augustine was a canon ; is he not "a Saint?" The Cistercian : ' ' He called himself monk in many of "his sermons, in particular in the sermon where he "speaks of himself and the clerics. The Norbertines "show bad taste in refusing through self-love the title "of monk in order to be called preachers and pastors. " The Clunyite: "Be careful. You are doing them a 1 ' double injury. You call them monks, and moreover you "call them Norbertines, and... they do not wish either "name. " The Cistercian : "Do you know why ? ' ' The Clunyite: "That is their business. I think, judg- "ing from their long cassocks, that they desire to be "preachers and pastors of parishes, which is not allowed "to monks. Perhaps they do not wish to be called Nor- "bertines, because, as some say, their founder, master "Norbert, has apostatised. You can see him, after hav- "ing made profession to walk barefooted, riding a splen- "did horse, attending banquets, and living at the Court "of Emperor Lothaire.
