canons regular

This monastery was restored in the reign of Robert Bruce, and became a cell of the abbey of canons regular at Inchaffray.

The Augustinians were a milder order than the Benedictines, and were divided into canons secular and canons regular.

The same may be said of the superior of those houses of Canons Regular, and other bodies, where the chief official was a prior.

Again (canon 47), that neither monks nor canons regular spend time in eating or drinking, save at the stated hours.

White canons regular were placed there to serve God early and late and to be holy men.
