The recent petition of Nicholas, bishop of Lismore and Waterford, contained that the pope lately made him provision of the said united churches, on their voidance by the resignation to the pope of John, now bishop in the universal church, and that he has obtained possession, but that the dean, etc. of Waterford, especially James Risse and John Bottiller, laymen, citizens of the said city (alleging that the said resignation did not take place, and that Nicholas does not understand the English language, and cannot speak it intelligibly), refuse to receive him as bishop. The pope, therefore, hereby orders the above archbishop to compel them to receive Nicholas as bishop of Waterford, obey him, and restore to him all fruits etc. taken from the episcopal mensa from the time of the said provision, etc. Ad personam venerabilis fratris nostri.

At the petition of the said master and friars (which added that although the said Donatus afterwards pretended to repent, and promised to make satisfaction to the said Donald and friars, he has not only not done so, but has injured them as much more as he could; and that Bernard Macdonkayd (fn. 6) has been wont to impose unlawful cesses and tributes on the said master and friars and their servants), the pope hereby orders the above three to summon Donatus and Bernard, and their accomplices, and compel them under penalty of excommunication etc. to make satisfaction to the said master and friars; with faculty to absolve and enjoin penance on them, absolution in case of contumacy being reserved to the pope and his successors.
