	The Age of Gregory VII, 1073-85:A letter from Archbishop Liemar of Bremen to Bishop Hezilo of Hildesheim (1075)
		To which, on the advice of those of our brother bishops who were present, the Archbishop of Mainz and I replied that it was impossible for us two to put this edict of theirs into practice without consulting our brothers and fellow bishops, the greatest men in the kingdom and taking their advice.
		This dangerous man wants to order bishops about as though they were his bailiffs [ut villicis suis], and if they do not do everything that he wishes then they have to come to Rome or be suspended without trial.
		I do indeed know well that there are those among our bishops who, despite the utter hatred they have for the king, my lord, have pity on me, his helper, in these travails caused by their machinations, for I have been labouring for the common benefit of all in this conflict.

	WHKMLA : Hildesheim Stift Feud, 1518-1523
		In the high middle ages, prior to the investiture conflict, a bishop of Hildesheim had served as Imperial chancellor, and, in return, received land as compensation for his services.

		In the subsequent decennia, the title of Bishop of Hildesheim was mostly held by the Princebishop of another Westphalian diocesis.
