I'm going to ask Miss Burd if I may run over into the Abbey and leave it on the organ for him.

He has a choir practice to-night, so he's sure to find it.

Will you come with me?
Right-o! We'll both go in and ask 'exeats.'" The College was erected upon a plot of land which had originally been part of the Abbey grounds.

All the old buildings, formerly inhabited by the monks of St.Bidulph's, and by the nuns in the adjoining convent of St.Mary's, had long ago been swept away, and only a few ruined walls marked their sites.

The nave of the Abbey, however, had escaped, and was still in use as a parish church, though the beautiful original chancel and transepts had been battered down by Henry the Eighth's Commissioners.
