honour to our venerable brother Thurstan, archbishop of
York, as to thy proper metropolitan.
But although, as he states, thou didst promise to obey
him, nevertheless thou hast not yet carried it into effect.
Wherefore we command thee by the present writings to lay
aside all delay and tergiversation, and humbly to obey our
brother aforesaid, archbishop Thurstan otherwise we cannot
;
fail him in his just right.

POPE INNOCENT II TO THE BISHOPS OF SCOTLAND ;
YORK, VOL. Ill,
p. 62.
IN RAINE'S
Bishop Innocent, servant of the servants of God, to all
bishops throughout Scotland, suffragans of the church of
York, greeting and apostolic benediction.
It is just that he who desires to rule others should by no
means blush to be subject to those preferred before, him.
For obedience and humility are guardians of the virtues ;
but an arrogant and disobedient man incurs the wrath of
God, and becoming intolerable drives from him his neighbour's
love.
But even as obedient and humble sons are to be cherished
in the bosom of the apostolic see, so conversely those who
are rebellious and proud are, in the strict rigour of justice,
to be constrained by condign chastisements.
That therefore due honour and justice be preserved to
each, we order and command you by apostolic writings humbly
to offer obedience and honour to our venerable brother arch-
bishop Thurstan as to your proper metropolitan, without any
and to obey him inviolably, in so far as was com-
opposition ;
manded you by our predecessors of happy memory, the
Roman pontiffs Calixtus and Honorius.
Given at Auxerre, the third 2 before the Kalends of
