Reading edition
Ib. 587;
“Extemplo quidam partim Normannus et Anglus,
Compater Heraldi, jussa libenter agit:
Corpus enim Regis citò sustulit et sepelivit,
Imponens lapidem, scripsit et in titulo:
‘Per mandata Ducis, Rex, hic, Heralde, quiescis,
Ut custos maneas littoris et pelagi.’”
See the quotation from William of Poitiers, p. 512. So Ord. Vit. 502 B.
