Thus the said master John Castellane being made ready to his degradation by the officers of the said Bishop, was apparelled in his Priestly attire, and afterward brought forth of the Chapel by the Priests, which were thereunto appointed, with all his priestly ornaments upon him, and holding his hands together, he kneeled down before the Bishop.1 Then the officers gave him the chalice in his hands with wine & water, the patine, & the host: all which things the said bysh. which degraded him, took from him, saying, we take away from thee, or command to be taken from thee, all power to offer sacrifice unto God, & to say Mass aswell for the quick, as the dead.
