an archbishop, bishop, papal legate or king visited an abbey – and whenever
the pope arrived – he was to be ceremoniously received by the entire community
at the gate and led to the choir of the church. Thereafter he was led to the
chapter-house for the blessing and reading; the visitor might address the community
after which he was refreshed in the guesthouse, Ecclesiastica Officia 86: 1-12
(p. 246).
