SPARHAWK/SPARHAUKE

((A.D. 1046. This year died Brithwin, bishop in Wiltshire, and Herman was
appointed to his see. In that year King Edward gathered a large ship-force at
Sandwich, on account of the threatening of Magnus in Norway: but his and
Sweyn's contention in Denmark hindered his coming here. This year died
Athelstan, Abbot of Abingdon, and Sparhawk, monk of St. Edmund's-bury,
succeeded him.

1050 to 1099

The king meanwhile gave the see of London to Sparhawk, Abbot of Abingdon.

A.D. 1051. This year came Archbishop Robert hither over sea with his pall
from Rome, one day before St. Peter's eve: and he took his archiepiscopal
seat at Christ-church on St. Peter's day, and soon after this went to the
king. Then came Abbot Sparhawk to him with the king's writ and seal, to the
intent that he should consecrate him Bishop o£ London; but the archbishop
refused, saying that the pope had forbidden him.
