On the same day, Hubert (age 34), Archbishop of Canterbury, along with Hugh, Bishop of Lincoln, Richard (age 64), Bishop of London, Gilbert, Bishop of Rochester, Godfrey, Bishop of Winchester, as well as the Bishops of Worcester and Hereford, Henry (age 46), Bishop-elect of Exeter, and many abbots and clergy of the diocese of Canterbury, gathered in the chapel of the infirm monks at Westminster. There, they pronounced a sentence of excommunication upon Count John and upon all his supporters and advisors, who had disturbed or sought to disturb the peace and kingdom of the King of England, unless they abandoned their hostility and sought reconciliation. Furthermore, they appealed to the presence of the Lord Pope against William, Bishop of Ely, so that he might no longer exercise the office of legate in England. They confirmed their appeal with their seals and sent it first to the king, and then to the Supreme Pontiff for ratification. This appeal was made on the fourth Ides of February (February 10), on a Thursday.
