Ralf Flambard:

--"William was left to his own courses, and to his chosen friend Ralph, a low-born Norman priest, beloved by the King partly for his qualities as a boon companion, partly for his ingenuity as an extortioner. Ho was universally known by the nickname of Flambard, or the Torch, and was bitterly hated by men of every class. He was once very nearly murdered by some sailors, who kidnapped him, and carried him on board a large ship. Some of them quarrelled about the division of his robes, a storm arose, and he so worked on their fears that they at length set him on shore, where William was so delighted to see him that he gave him the bishopric of Durham, the richest of all, because the bishop was also an earl, and was charged to defend the frontier against the Scots.

--"He had promised to relax the forest laws, but this was only one of his promises made to be broken ; and he became so much more strict in his enforcement of them than even the Conqueror, that he acquired the nickname of Ranger of the Woods and Keeper of the Deer. Dogs in the neighborhood of his forests were deprived of their claws, and there was a scale of punishments for poachers of any rank, extending from the loss of a hand, or eye, to that of life itself. . . ." (Yonge, p. 108)

the Firebrand: " . . . Ralf himself, a clerk from Bayeaux, who from the position of an obscure dependent in the Conqueror's household had made his way by the intriguing, pushing, unscrupulous temper which earned him his nickname of the 'Firebrand,' was an upstart whom the barons of the Conquest may well have despised as much as the native English feared and hated him...."
