^{page 170 note 4} The story seems to be based on the respect which Alexander showed Laniranc when he visited Rome in 1071 for his pallium. Malmesbury, Gest. Pont., 65, has, ‘Alexander … venienti.… dignanter assurgeret, professus hanc venerationem non se illius archiepiscopatui sed magisterio litterarum deferre’. Miles (Opera Omnia, 11b) was possibly elaborating this passage when he ascribed to Alexander the words, ‘Non ideo assurexi ei quia archiepiscopus Cantuariae est, sed quia Becci ad scholam eius fui et ad pedes eius cum aliis auditor consedi’. If Alexander had, indeed, been Lanfranc's pupil, the date must be before 1057, for by then the future bishop and pope had already been active in Milan.

To mention one point, the author never pretends to know what went on in the royal court while the bishop was dismissed from it. The informant was presumably one of the bishop's suite.
