Wyvil was keeper of the Privy Seal of Edward, duke of Aquitaine in 1326 when he was named on 26 October Lord Privy Seal, which office he held until the early part of 1327.[1]
Wyvil was nominated to the see of Salisbury on 16 April 1330 and consecrated on 15 July 1330. He had a reputation for stressing his authority and defending the rights of his see: Wyvil was the first Salisbury bishop to use 'Sarum' on his seal,[2], issued a mandate against a man impersonating a hermit,[3], and nearly used a knight in a trial by combat to maintain the cathedral's ownership of Sherborne Castle.[4]
He died on 4 September 1375.[5]

gollark: The difference is probably positive vs negative rights.
gollark: Anarchocapitalistic people would probably agree with that too.
gollark: Specifically, that nobody should force you to interact with people in certain ways and you should interact through free, willing trade.
gollark: That's kind of funny, because lots of anarchocapitalists would probably use similar reasoning to argue *for* it.
gollark: It gets equivocated to mean so many things, like "respect"; it is more of a fuzzy label for a set of related concepts than a precise technical definition.
