 Herbarz Polski (P)
He asked Jarler, Archbishop of Uppsala, for permission to found a Dominican monastery in Sigtuna, in which many virtuous people left worldly ways to devote their lives to the service of God.
Stefan, Gniezno archbishop, was an ancestor of this house-true, Janicius and Paprocki put him under Topor arms, and Okolski sometimes puts him among the Topors, sometimes among the Pobogs; but Dlugosz, the most ancient author of them all, would have it that he was a Pobog.
At Stefan's instigation the sejm was called in Gniezno at which it was decided to bring Kazimierz from the Cluniac monastery and put him on his father's throne, to which end they would not stint their work and efforts.

Many pronouncements and actions of Patriarch Athenagoras as well as Archbishop Iakovos, having provoked serious controversies among the Orthodox, are equally open to scrutiny by the Episcopate of the Church Universal.

 Protopresbyter Alexander Schmemann: On The 'Sorrowful Epistle' of Metropolitan Philaret
Many pronouncements and actions of Patriarch Athenagoras as well as Archbishop Iakovos, having provoked serious controversies among the Orthodox, are equally open to scrutiny by the Episcopate of the Church Universal.
The total flaw, however, lies in the fact of an open contradiction between the perfectly canonical and traditional stand taken in the "Epistle" and the general policy of the "Russian Church Outside Russia" whose Primate is Metropolitan Philaret.
The "Epistle" consistently refers to Patriarch Athenagoras as "His Holiness, Patriarch Athenagoras," and to the Archbishop as "His Eminence, Archbishop Iakovos." And although very serious accusations are stated against both hierarchs, nowhere is their case presented as being prejudged.

Pärt's music is its originality, and that was especially apparent here in "Dopo la Vittoria" ("After the Complete Victory," 1997), to a text from Archbishop Philaret's "History of Church Singers and Chants," of 1902, which tells of the creation of hymns by St. Ambrose and St. Augustine.

A reasonable explanation of the roundels finding their way to Biskopskulla is that the church was a prebende church to Uppsala Cathedral and was used by the bishop who perhaps on some occasion either left his garment behind or donated it with its roundels to the church.
