 | | The Crusade of the Bishop of Norwich (1383), according to the Chronicle of Henry Knighton |
 | | The bishop had raised an incalculable and unbelievably large sure of money, in gold and silver, and in jewels, necklaces, rings, dishes, plate, spoons, and other ornaments, and especially from ladies and other women, for it was said that one lady gave him £100, and others likewise, some more, and some less. |
 | | For the bishop had wonderful indulgences, with absolution from punishment and from guilt, granted to him for the said crusade by Pope Urban VI, by whose authority both he and his agents absolved both the living and the dead on whose behalf a sufficient contribution was made. |
