Monks of the Monastery

This track bears the heavy imprint of an arts and history/archaeology collective in which I piloted and performed quite a few of the Doin Different ballads prior to their publication. 'Diggers' achieved considerable things in its one year life through 2012, a sell out gig at Binham Village Hall on July 7 celebrating Boudicca’s Country from the Bronze Age to the Ballad Age combining practitioners in archaeology, theatre, folk ballads, music and visual arts and with a launch on the nearby Bronze Age barrow known as Fiddler’s Hill probably its apotheosis. ( See DD1 track 1). We even published a touring book combining visual art, history and a dramatic monologue the following September, the first (and as it turned out last) of a planned series. The troubled life and fabulous stormy times of this magnificent, doom-haunted ‘Notre Dame of Norfolk’ - Binham Priory - is a fitting memorial for the starry project’s Icarus-like ambitions, the unachieved parts of which the Doin Different project went on to achieve ( or not) with different personnel.
lyrics
The Ballad of Binham Priory

Call their names from the rubble: Alexander de Langley,
Mad as a scholar – ‘here’.
William de Somerton, William Dyxwell,
Priors and bad boys - ‘here.’

A mad monk in solitary, buried in chains,
Tortured to brake his devil;
Alchemy funded by holy sales,
Double and bubble and trouble;

Monks eating bran and drinking rain
Till King John raised the siege;
A wanderlust prior, administ-truant,
Deposed and then reprieved.

Chorus
‘As the green of summer breaks in spring
From hedgerow, field and tree
So let our souls in freedom burst
From the walls of this Priory.’

The peasants were revolting here
In 1381
When Master Lister led the charge
That started all the fun.

‘Enough!’ he cried, ‘of fattened bishops
Fed on Priory rolls,
Enough of tenants, rents and lords
And serfdom’s heavy loads.’


The old order stood another six generations,
Its dead Norms carved in art
Then the ghost of Lister came back to haunt
The Priory’s stony heart.

‘Whitewash these saints from the walls of the nave,
A clear new page for the Word,
Your bishops’ bank is ruined now
There are no serfs to herd!

Chorus

This high Notre Dame of Norfolk shrunk
To a nave-sized Parish Church,
Abandoned wings sold off for stone
To men scarce more than serfs

But when Paston quarried the haunted pile
To build a house in the grounds,
A wall killed a workman and none to this day
Will build in Priory bounds.

Three miles to the West, Roman relics and smoke
Rise again from Celtic Earth
Like the re-appeared saints whose rooted gaze
Reclaims the walls of this church.

‘Let the holy rain of autumn fall
From the solitary tree
And the grass grow wild and the four winds blow
Through the grounds of this Priory.’
