The canons of St. Paul's received the investiture and parsonage of the church and the canons of Holy Trinity received the perpetual vicarage with cure of souls. After the death of Jocelin the priest, St. Paul's was to receive as pension from the convent of Holy Trinity half the pension paid by the chaplain appointed by the convent.1
