From the "St. Albans Psalter", created at St. Abans Abbey essentially by Geoffrey de Gorham (or Gorron), Abbot of St. Albans (1119-46). Psalms 108:3, 8: David, wearing his crown holds a book with the words "Arise psalterium … Galaad is mine and Manasses is mine". He points to a building, the church where the service should take place.
