|Comments=The <i>Venerabilis R. presul Exoniensis</i> addressed in the dedication to the poem is usually taken to refer to either Robert (de) Warelwast, bishop of Exeter (1138–1155), or his successor, Robert of Chichester (1155–c.1160), who is sometimes confused with his namesake. Another suggestion is that <i>R.</i> is, in fact, a copying error for <i>B.</i> and originally referred to Bartholomew, who was bishop of Exeter between 1161 and 1184. The reading given in support of this is a possible allusion to the death of Conan IV, duke of Britanny, in 1171. | |Comments=The <i>Venerabilis R. presul Exoniensis</i> addressed in the dedication to the poem is usually taken to refer to either Robert (de) Warelwast, bishop of Exeter (1138–1155), or his successor, Robert of Chichester (1155–c.1160), who is sometimes confused with his namesake.
