Two or three of them addressed him, as usual, as monk, but he said: "Look here, comrades, I have been a monk, and a bad one, and the less said about it the better.

I am no longer a monk, but a man-at-arms; and as I am not proud of my doings as a monk, I have given up the title, as I have given up the garb.

Therefore I give fair notice that whosoever, in future, shall address me as monk, will feel the weight of my arm.

My name is Roger, and as Roger let me be called, henceforth." So saying, he fell into his place in the line, when the cavalcade continued their way.
The journey was a long one.

Oswald had been well supplied with funds, and seldom found difficulty in obtaining lodgings for the party.
