house of lords. There is a spiritual
hierarchy as we'll as temporal peerage.
and the one has as much right to a title

Sir" so a bishop is a 'slord, and
graduates are still called "domini' at
the universities. In Elizabeth's time
the suffragan bishop of Dover was styled
MY lord of Dover" The following
extract from a letter written by the
Right Hon. r. A. Cross, secretary of
state (now Viscount Cross, to the arch.
bishop. of Canterbury, May 30, 1874,
reads:
There is ample documentary evi.
