Sagging and boring stretch. Not happy with this concubine part of the plot. Rufus finally becomes king after his dad dies; took 50% of the book for this to happen.

Ranulph finally in England. His impression of London interesting. Becomes chaplain to William Rufus [so-called in this book for his florid complexion].

Reads smoothly despite 700+ pp. Ranulph not yet in England.

Ranulph, Bp. of Durham dies. These are his papers regarding his life and relationship w/ King William Rufus.
