Légende

Silver paten found in the tomb of Walter de Cantelupe, Bishop of Worcester, 1236, (1898). 'The ancient silver paten, of which an Illustration is here given, was found in Worcester Cathedral within the stone coffin of Walter de Cantelupe, Bishop of Worcester, in 1236, and has now been restored to its original use in the celebration of the Holy Communion. The number of patens similarly found in the tombs of Bishops suggests that in mediaeval times it must have been the custom to bury with a Bishop the paten employed by him in the services of his cathedral. Several patens found in episcopal tombs are to be seen in York Minster.' From "Illustrated London News", 1898.
