Mandate to make provision to Maurice Yeulenan, a poor priest, of the diocese of Tuam alias Mayo (Maiorien.), who is at the apostolic see, if he do not hold any benefice already, of a benefice wont to be assigned to secular clerks, provided that it be not in a cathedral church, with or without cure, value not exceeding 30 or 25 marks sterling accordingly, in the collation or provision of the archbishop of Tuam, if there be one at present void in the city or diocese of Tuam, where the said priest alleges that he has chosen his dwelling-place (perpetuam mansionem), or when such a benefice shall become void. Dilecti filii Mauricii Yculenan pauperis presbyteri Tuamensis alias Maioriensis diocesis apud sedem apostolicam constituti [supplicacionibus inclinati, etc., as on f. 5, where a similar mandate of provision to a poor priest is registered in full].

Dilecti filii Odonis. (M. Orri. | Ja. de Buccapadulibus.) [9 lines.

Ibid.
(f. 82d.)		 To the provost and Nicholas Olachnayn and Odo Orugily, canons, of Tuam. The like on behalf of Maurus Ychallanayn, a poor priest, of the diocese of Annaghdown, who is at the apostolic see, and who has been dispensed by papal authority on account of illegitimacy, as the son of a priest and an unmarried woman, to be promoted to all, even holy orders and hold a benefice even with cure; for a benefice as above, value not exceeding 30 marks sterling if with cure, or 25 if without, in the collation or provision of the bishop of Annaghdown, if etc. as above, mutatis mutandis.

Footnotes

1

On the back of the volume is the usual modern label: Paul. II. In for.paup., and on the surviving front half of the original sheepskin binding is the title: Reg. bullarum in forma pauperum sanctissimi domini nostri Pauli pape secundi, more briefly repeated on the bottom edge of the volume, as usual, There are ff. 1–204 of text, and no rubricelle, The volume consists almost entirely of mandates, nearly always registered in a very abbreviated form, to make provision to poor priests or clerks of a secular benefice with or without cure, of stated value, in the gift of stated patrons. Above each bull is indicated the result of the examination to which each petitioner has been subjected, and the order which is assigned to him in the expectative ‘queue,’ e.g. Bene per omnia, et sit primus (or secundus, tercius, etc.); Bene legit, competenter construit et cantat, et sit primus; Bene legit, bene cantat, competenter construit, [et] sit septimus; Bene legit, mediocriter construit et cantat, [et] sit primus; Bene legit et cantat, et debiliter construit, [et] sit primus; Competenter per omnia, et sit tercius; Bene legit, bene cantat et nichil construit, [et] sit primus; Bene legit, bene cantat, non construit, [et] sit quintus; Bene legit et construit, de cantu nichil scit, [et] sit primus.Cf. also the headings printed in the text above. It thus appears that the place in the ‘queue’ did not depend on the result of the examination.

In the top margin of f. 185d. is the following: Die lune sexta mensis Marcii anno domini moccccolxix, pontificatus sanctissimi domini nostri domini Pauli pape secundi anno quinto, dominus A (lvarus Alfonsi) episcopus Elboren., Cancellarie Apostolice Regens, deputavit examinatorem super graciis in communi forma pauperum in regno Anglie concedendis dominum Iacobum Golwell, prothonotarium apostolicum, etc.
2 As only very rarely added, e.g. on ff. 123r. and 127r.
3 If it were not for the name ‘David Swintun,’ it might be supposed from the context that ‘Brechinen.’ here and in the margin is an error for ‘Bremen.’
