In the year 1600, on the destruction of theabbey upon Mont Ste. Catherine, the monks of that establishment wereallowed to fix themselves at St. Julien; but they resigned it, after aperiod of sixty-seven years, to the Carthusians of Gaillon, who, incorporating the...mselves with their brethren of the same order at Rouen, formed a very opulent community. The monastery, previously occupied bythe latter, was known by the poetical appellation of _la Rose de NotreDame_: indeed, it is thus termed in the charter of its foundation, dated1384.
