canonry

Even the long-promised canonry finally fell into his lap in 1579.

On 14 May 1568, Tycho received a formal promise from the King, still Frederick II, that he could have the next canonry to become vacant at the Cathedral of Roskilde, in Seeland.

Having completed his studies in Rostock, and with his future secured by the promise of a canonry, in the middle of 1568 Tycho set off on his travels again.

“It is a good promotion for us to have the beer here because it is a very popular drink in the Czech Republic,” said Father Tadeas from the Canonry of Premonstratensians, a Catholic order that came to Zeliv in the 12th century.

Foulques suffered somewhat in public estimation from the backsliding of Pierre de Roissi, whom he had taken as an associate, and who in preaching poverty amassed wealth and obtained a canonry at Chartres, where he rose to be chancellor.
