Excerpt from English Monasticism: Its Rise and Influence The career of Glastonbury Abbey; the oldest monastery in England, is selected, to be described collaterally with this investigation, in order that a picture may be given of the interior life or the Cloister, with its glories and its sorrows, as it was played' out in that celebrated institution.
