— This was a prison. The Abbot or Prior had arbitrary powers of punish- ment. Monks guilty of felony or adultery were imprisoned in chains for a year.
The Song School. — This w^as built generally within the church, at times in the roof, at others in the crypt. A master was appointed, who taught the novices and lay children herein to sing and play on the organ.
78 MONASTIC LONDON The Vestiary. — This was also situated within the church and adjoined the altar. There were often double Vestiaries.
...Here were deposited the garments and Gimelia of the church. It consisted for the most part of a series of stone closets.
To these various offices must be added the Garden, wherein the monks laboured or sought recreation. The Fratry, adorned with curious painted imageries, the Stable, the Dove-cot, the Cow-house, etc.
So much for the several distinctive offices in the small world of a monastery. Now for the officers, a fairly numerous host.
