Chapter XXXVII: Appendix: WW. Vol. ii. p. 384 (6)
[1162] The native Chronicler alone notices this point. His
account of the siege of Bridgenorth――leaving out
Shrewsbury――runs thus; “Se cyng … syððan mid ealre his fyrde
ferde to Brigge, and þær wunode oððe he þone castel hæfde,
and þone eorl Rotbert belænde, and ealles benæmde þæs he on
Englalande hæfde, and se eorl swa ofer sǽ gewát, _and seo
fyrde siððan ham cyrde_.” Men might stay at home during the
rest of Henry’s days, unless they were called to go beyond
sea themselves.
[1163] Numbers, xxi. 29.
[1164] “Omnis Anglia exsulante crudeli tyranno exsultavit,
multorumque congratulatio regi Henrico tunc adulando dixit,
Gaude, rex Henrice, Dominoque Deo grates age, quia tu libere
cœpisti regnare, ex quo Rodbertum de Belismo vicisti, et de
finibus regni tui expulisti.”
[1165] Orderic and William of Malmesbury record the
banishment of both brothers. Florence mentions Arnulf only.
“Germanum illius [Rotberti] Arnoldum paulo post, pro sua
perfidia, simili sorte damnavit.” To the author of the Brut
the departure of Arnulf was of special importance. The King
gives him his choice, “either to quit the kingdom and follow
his brother, or else”――I can only follow the
translation――“to be at his will with his head in his lap.”
“When Ernulf heard that, he was most desirous of going after
his brother; so he delivered his castle [of Pembroke] to the
King, and the King placed a garrison in it.”
[1166] See N. C. vol. v. pp. 173, 184. See Chron. Petrib.
1105, 1112; Flor. Wig. ib. Cf. Hen. Hunt de Cont. Mundi,
II. “Qui cæteros carcere vexaverat, in carcere perenni a
rege Henrico positus, longo supplicio sceleratus deperiit.
Quam tantopere fama coluerat dum viveret, in carcere utrum
viveret vel obisset nescivit, diemque mortis ejus
obmutescens ignoravit.”
[1167] See Appendix II.
[1168] See Appendix II.
[1169] The latter is the story in the Brut; the Annales
Cambriæ say; “Jorwert filius Bledint Maredut frater suum
cepit, regi tradidit;” or, in another reading, “Cepit
fratrem suum Mareduch, et eum in carcerem regis trusit.”
[1170] See above, pp. 98, 108.
[1171] Brut, p. 75.
[1172] See N. C. vol. v. p. 160.
[1173] Ib. vol. i. pp. 327, 333.
[1174] The account in the Brut is that in 1101 (that is
1103) he “was cited to Shrewsbury, through the treachery of
the King’s council. And his pleadings and claims were
arranged; and on his having come, all the pleadings were
turned against him, and the pleading continued through the
day, and at last he was adjudged to be fineable, and was
afterwards cast into the King’s prison, not according to
law, but according to power.” Again I should like to be able
to judge of the translation. The Annals say in one copy,
“Iorward filius Bledint apud Saresberiam a rege Henrico
injuste capitur;” in another, “captus est ab hominibus regis
apud Slopesburiam.” Shrewsbury is of course the right
reading.
[1175] So says the Brut. The Annals also call him “decus et
solamen Britanniæ.”
[1176] His story is told among others by William of
Malmesbury, v. 397, 398.
[1177] The question of his blinding has a bearing on the
question of the blinding of Duke Robert. See N. C. vol. v.
p. 849.]
