The charter first mentions the building of the church, then adds, “Primum concedens ei terram quæ vocatur Norðlande, unde ecclesiam villæ antiquitùs dotatam invenit;” then comes the consecration, then the ornaments and the relics; then “Quid plura? suæ denique conditionis non immemor, ibidem quorumdam catervulam fratrum secundum auctoritatem sanctorum patrum canonicæ regulæ [canonical, as opposed to monastic] subjectam constituit.” Cod. Dipl. iv. 155.
