Note 125 — Chapter XXIII · : The Lord Bishop. The Canons. The Parish Clergy.
Reading edition
Manasses (a great cleric, chancellor of the chapter of Amiens) caused himself to be represented on his seal not holding a pious book, as was usual, but in hunting costume on horseback, a bird on his wrist and a dog following. He was evidently a worldly noble "who had the tastes of his class and led a noble's life."
