He removed to Montpellier, where he studied diseases of the mind. Returning to Paris, he studied divinity, and soon became a doctor in that faculty, and a professor in the schools. In 1223 he joined the Dominicans, being the first Englishman of that order. In 1235 he went to Oxford, where he became lecturer in arts and divinity. A close intimacy sprang up between him and Grossetete, bishop of Lincoln, who obtained leave of the general of the order that AEgidius might reside with him as an assistant.
