“[The archbishop’s court] sentenced him to the loss of his prebend and all other revenues for two years, with the profits to be distributed to the poor at the king’s discretion, to a public whipping in the presence of the judge he had insulted, and possibly to one or two years’ banishment. Henry [II] was outraged by the leniency.”
Frank Barlow, Thomas Becket
